Responsible Gaming
Gambling should always be a form of entertainment — never a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If the fun stops, stop. Please read the following information carefully.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher) to access any gambling service. Underage gambling is illegal. We encourage parents and guardians to use filtering software to prevent access by minors.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you care about, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses — trying to win back money you have lost
- Hiding gambling activity from family or friends
- Spending more time or money on gambling than you can afford
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble
- Feeling anxious, guilty, or depressed about gambling
- Neglecting work, studies, or relationships due to gambling
- Lying about gambling or being defensive when asked
- Gambling to escape from stress, anxiety, or other problems
Self-Help Tools
Most reputable gambling sites offer tools to help you stay in control. We strongly recommend using them:
- Deposit limits — set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, week, or month.
- Loss limits — cap the amount you are willing to lose over a set period.
- Reality checks — periodic reminders of how long you have been playing.
- Self-exclusion — block yourself from accessing gambling sites for a chosen period (e.g., 6 months, 1 year, or permanently).
- Time-out periods — take a short break from gambling (24 hours to 6 weeks).
