Prime Casino account: sessions, controls and recovery
Read this when you sign in for the first time, or when you return to your account on a shared device.
Sign out on any device others use
The sign-in page that appears when a session ends looks like a fresh start, so many players do not notice that the earlier window is still open elsewhere. Sessions are lost in a few common ways: a browser clears its cookies, a phone goes to sleep for a long stretch, or a computer is shared with someone else. The last case causes the most trouble, because the next person to open the browser may find your balance and history in full view. Sign out every time you leave a device that others use, even for a short break. Keep your password to yourself, and never give it to friends or family. If you think someone else has seen it, change the password straight away, then sign in again on each device you trust. A sign-in you did not start is worth raising with support at once.
Use the registered address to recover access
The recovery option on the sign-in screen starts a short process that ends with a link in your inbox. Use the email address you registered with, because the link goes only to that address. Open the message, follow the secure link and set a new password on the page it opens. Once you are back in, the account may ask for identity documents. Photo ID and proof of address are the documents it accepts, and they are checked at the latest before your first withdrawal, so you do not need them on day one. Allow fourteen hours for the check to finish once the files are in. If nothing arrives, check your spam folder, then contact live chat or email at [email protected].
When play starts costing more than planned
The limit options in your account cover deposits, losses and the time you spend in a session. Deposit limits set a ceiling on what you put in, and loss limits set one on what you can lose. Session time limits let you cap your time, and reality check reminders show how long you have been playing. Self-exclusion runs through BetStop, the national register operated by the Australian Government (ACMA), and the application takes about five minutes at betstop.gov.au. The minimum exclusion is three months, and it cannot be shortened. You can nominate a support person during the application. The National Gambling Helpline is open twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year, on 1800 858 858, and offers free chat and email counselling.
Prime Casino sign-in needs your registration details
The sign-in screen is simple, but it only works when your details match the ones you gave at registration. Have the email address or username you registered with in front of you, and check the spelling against your records. Choose the device first, since the desktop browser, the iOS and Android apps and the mobile browser all reach the same account. Decide how much you are prepared to spend before you go near the deposit options. Give yourself a quiet minute before you start, because a rushed sign-in is the one most likely to go wrong. A device that belongs to someone else deserves extra caution, as the earlier section on sessions explains. Keep the same details for every device, so that each sign-in matches what you already know.
How much play must a bonus need first?
The cashier lists nine payment methods, and it is also where you choose an offer. An offer is taken at the moment you deposit, by selecting it in the cashier, so there is nothing to enter elsewhere. The site currently offers a welcome bonus, weekend free spins and a weekly reload, and each one carries its own validity period and minimum deposit. Read the wagering terms before you accept an offer, since they set how much you must play before bonus money can be withdrawn. Withdrawals are requested from the same account area, and the smallest is A$26 while the largest is A$23,100. Card withdrawals take sixty-two hours, so pick the method that suits your timing.
