Responsible Gambling

Online gambling can be enjoyable when done responsibly. Set clear limits on how much time and money you spend, and never gamble more than you can afford to lose. Remember that the odds always favour the house in the long run.

Be aware of these warning signs:

• Spending more money or time gambling than you planned
• Feeling the need to gamble with increasing amounts
• Chasing losses by continuing to gamble after losing
• Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble
• Neglecting work, study, or family responsibilities
• Feeling anxious, stressed, or depressed about gambling
• Lying to others about your gambling habits

Reputable online casinos offer tools to help you stay in control:

• Deposit limits - Set maximum amounts you can deposit per day, week, or month
• Loss limits - Cap the amount you can lose in a given period
• Time limits - Set maximum playing time with automatic reminders
• Self-exclusion - Temporarily or permanently block your account
• Reality checks - Regular pop-up reminders about time and money spent
• Cool-off periods - Take a short break from gambling
