Terms of use

1. Independent publication

Wager Compass AU is an independent educational website. It is not owned, operated, authorised or endorsed by TAB, Tabcorp, ACMA, BetStop or any wagering provider or government body. TAB and related names belong to their respective owners and are used only to identify the subject of commentary.

2. No wagering service

The site does not accept bets, deposits or payments; provide odds; manage accounts; pay winnings; or supply software for real-money gambling. Nothing on the site is an invitation to open a wagering account.

3. General information only

Content is general information, not legal, financial, medical or betting advice. Laws, licence conditions and provider features can change. Readers should verify important information with ACMA, the relevant state or territory regulator, a qualified professional or the provider’s official terms.

4. Gambling risk

Wagering involves the risk of losing money. It should never be treated as employment, an investment or a solution to financial pressure. The self-check is an educational reflection tool and does not diagnose gambling disorder.

5. Adults only

The site is intended for Australian adults aged 18 or over. People under 18 should not use wagering services.

6. External links

External links are included for reference and convenience. Wager Compass AU does not control third-party content, availability, security or privacy practices and does not guarantee transactions or services provided elsewhere.

7. Accuracy and availability

Reasonable care is taken when preparing content, but completeness and uninterrupted availability are not guaranteed. No liability is accepted for decisions made solely from this general information to the extent permitted by law.

8. Acceptable use

Visitors must not attempt to disrupt the site, introduce malicious code, impersonate the publication or reuse its original content in a misleading or unlawful way.
