Responsible Gaming

Playing within your means

Decide how much you are willing to spend before you open your Mr Fortune account for a session, and treat that figure as the cost of your entertainment rather than an investment.

Spread your play across shorter sittings instead of one long marathon, and step away whenever the excitement turns into pressure or irritation.

Chasing a losing run almost always makes matters worse. Accept that outcomes are governed by chance and that no strategy guarantees a win back.

Tools built into your account

Every Mr Fortune profile lets you set deposit caps, loss ceilings, and session timers that take effect immediately once confirmed.

If you need distance from play, activate a short cool-off period or a longer self-exclusion; while either is active, your account cannot accept new wagers or deposits.

Reality-check pop-ups can be switched on to remind you how long you have been playing, helping you notice when a session has run longer than intended.

Recognising the warning signs

Hiding how much you play, missing commitments, or borrowing to fund another session are all signals that gaming has moved beyond healthy entertainment.

When play begins to disturb your sleep, your finances, or the people close to you, pause and talk to someone you trust before continuing.

Protecting younger players

Mr Fortune is strictly for adults who meet the legal age requirement in New Zealand, and we verify identity to keep minors off the platform.

If others share your device, use password protection and reputable filtering software so that no underage person can reach your account.
