Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Safe Gaming
At afpa2019.com, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Star Casino Online and all gaming platforms should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Gaming always involves risk, and the house edge means that over time, players are more likely to lose than win.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to access and use Star Casino Online. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not use our services.

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please review the following checklist. If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, help is available:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Feeling the need to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
- Trying repeatedly to cut back or stop gambling without success
- Becoming restless or irritable when trying to reduce gambling
- Gambling to escape problems, anxiety, depression, or other difficult emotions
- Chasing losses by gambling more in an attempt to recover money lost
- Lying to friends, family, or others about the extent of your gambling

- Relying on others to provide money to cover gambling debts or financial problems
- Having difficulty controlling the impulse to gamble despite negative consequences

- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a gaming session
- Session Time Limits: Set a timer to remind you when you have been gaming for a certain period
