Responsible gambling
Gambling is entertainment with an expected cost. When it stops being that, help is available, free and confidential.
Warning signs
When it stops being a pastime
None of these signs amounts to a diagnosis on its own, and this site cannot provide one. But if several feel familiar, it's worth speaking to a professional.
- Repeatedly betting more money or more time than you had decided to.
- Going back to gamble in order to win back losses.
- Borrowing, selling belongings or using money meant for essentials in order to bet.
- Hiding from the people around you how much you play or how much you lose.
- Feeling irritable or anxious when you try to cut down or stop.
- Gambling starting to affect your work, sleep, studies or relationships.
Tools
Controls available on the platform
Licensed operators are required to provide control mechanisms. They live in your account settings and take only a few steps to switch on.
- Deposit limit. A daily, weekly or monthly ceiling the platform will not let you exceed.
- Time or session limit. Ends the session once it reaches the length you set.
- Cooling-off period. Blocks access for a fixed stretch of time, enough to break a run.
- Self-exclusion. A long-term or permanent account block. It is the strongest tool available and cannot be reversed before the chosen period ends.
- Activity history. The record of your deposits and bets: the real number, not the remembered one.
Habits that lower the risk
- Decide what you'll spend before you open the platform, and treat that amount as already spent.
- Never gamble with borrowed money or with money set aside for fixed costs.
- Avoid gambling while drinking, exhausted or emotionally low.
- Keep other activities in the mix: if gambling is the only one, it already takes up too much room.
Under-18s
Strictly 18 and over
Access to gambling platforms is prohibited for anyone under 18. This site does not aim its content at minors and screens its audience through the signals available to it.
If you share devices with children or teenagers, use parental controls and keep credentials out of reach. Content filtering tools exist for browsers and operating systems that block gambling sites outright.
If you become aware of a gambling account opened by someone under 18, report it to the operator immediately.
