How to set a card deposit limit
1. Casino Limits
Most licensed casinos in Australia offer a built-in responsible gaming system. The player can independently indicate:
- daily deposit limit;
- weekly or monthly limit;
- transaction limit.
Once the limit is set, the casino automatically rejects all replenishment attempts above the specified value.
2. Card Issuing Bank Limits
Large Australian banks (Commonwealth Bank, Westpac, ANZ, NAB) provide the ability to limit spending on a credit card:
- Setting a daily limit for online payments
- blocking transactions by category (for example, "gambling");
- temporarily reducing the available limit for online transactions.
This is an additional layer of protection, as the restriction works even when trying to bypass it at the casino.
3. Using the functions of the map itself
Some credit cards (including virtual ones) allow you to set a limit on:
- maximum amount of one transaction;
- total daily/weekly limit;
- number of refill attempts.
These restrictions are activated through a mobile application or Internet bank.
4. Self-monitoring tools
The player can use third-party services and applications to control expenses:
- Financial planning applications
- Automatic budget allocation
- push notifications for each operation.
Such measures help to monitor behavior and stop in time.
5. Hard deposit blocking
If there is a risk of excessive spending, you can completely block deposits in the casino:
- by contacting the bank's support service;
- through the casino self-exclusion system.
These measures make it impossible to deposit funds from the card.
Conclusion
You can set a limit on a deposit from a credit card both in the casino itself and through a bank or card tools. It is better to combine both methods - this is how the player receives double protection: the casino limits the entry amount, and the bank blocks unnecessary transactions. This helps control costs and reduces the risk of financial problems when gambling.
