Responsible Gaming
18+ · Gambling involves risk. Gambling can lead to financial loss and harm. It should never be treated as a way to make money. If it stops being fun, take a break and seek support.
Introduction
Responsible gaming keeps play safe and enjoyable. This page gathers reminders, risk information and support resources in one place. It applies to anyone using casino or sportsbook features and complements the official platform's own responsible gaming tools. The core idea is simple: gamble only what you can afford to lose, within limits you set, and stop when play stops being entertainment.
What Is Problem Gambling?
Problem gambling is when betting starts to cause harm to your finances, relationships, work or wellbeing. It can affect anyone, regardless of experience. Warning signs often build gradually, which is why setting limits early matters. Recognising a problem is the first step, and free, confidential support is always available. Treating gambling as entertainment rather than income is the healthiest starting point.
Signs of Problem Gambling
The signs below can indicate that gambling is no longer under control. Noticing several of them is a reason to pause and seek support.
- Spending more time or money than intended
- Chasing losses to try to win them back
- Borrowing money or neglecting bills to play
- Gambling to escape stress or low mood
- Hiding the extent of play from others
- Feeling anxious or irritable when not playing
Maintain Control
Staying in control is easier with a few consistent habits. Set your limits before you play, not during a session, and treat them as fixed.
- Set a budget before you play and keep to it
- Set a time limit for each session
- Never chase losses with larger bets
- Take regular breaks away from play
- Avoid playing while distressed or intoxicated
- Keep gambling separate from finances you rely on
Minors
Gambling is strictly for adults. Users must be at least 18, or the legal age in their jurisdiction. Minors must not access gambling sites or accounts under any circumstances. Keeping devices, accounts and payment methods secure helps prevent underage access, which is a shared responsibility of every account holder.
Tips to Protect Minors
Simple precautions reduce the risk of underage access to gambling content.
- Keep account and device credentials private
- Use parental controls and content filters
- Avoid leaving logged-in sessions open
- Talk with young people about gambling risks
Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion lets a player block their own access for a set period when they need a break. Account tools may also allow deposit limits, session limits or cooling-off periods. These are described here in general terms. For the exact options available to you, confirm the current tools on the official platform, since specifics can vary by account and region. If you feel play is becoming harmful, using these tools early can help you regain control before problems grow.
