Use the official register
Read current coverage and registration information on the official BetStop site. Do not enter identity details into an imitation page or assume a casino affiliate form registers you nationally.
Check the Register's Actual Coverage
BetStop is the Australian national self-exclusion register for licensed online and phone wagering providers. It prevents registered people from betting, opening accounts and receiving marketing from providers within that scope. It should not be described as a universal block for every offshore online casino.
Open the live accountDistinguish wagering and casino services
Australian licensed online wagering providers fall within the register. Offshore online casino sites may sit outside that system and can also raise separate legality and consumer-protection concerns.
Add device and financial barriers
When broader blocking is needed, combine national exclusion with bank gambling blocks where available, device/site-blocking tools and support from a qualified service. No single control covers every route.
Close individual accounts directly
For a casino outside BetStop's scope, request self-exclusion or closure through its own safer-play channel and keep written confirmation. Do not reopen or create substitute accounts to bypass the restriction.
