Self-Exclusion Program
About
Self-Exclusion program at Crown
When you need a break from gambling, Crown’s Self-Exclusion program can help you stay away from the casino, so you can focus on other areas of your life.
Guests can sign a voluntary agreement to exclude themselves from the gambling areas at Crown Melbourne, Crown Perth and Crown Sydney. There is also an added option of Self Excluding from The Star Sydney Casino. A Self-Exclusion is for a minimum period of 12 months, with longer options available. These options can be discussed with the Crown PlaySafe Team.
Why Self-Exclusion?
Guests may seek to Self Exclude from the casino for a number of reasons, including (but not limited to):
- Creating an opportunity to stop gambling at the casino
- Preventing or reducing the risk of harm associated with gambling (e.g. financial loss)
- To take a break from gambling to focus on other aspects of life, such as family, work or study
- To support a family member or friend who may be experiencing gambling related harm
