Responsible gambling

Online casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment—not a way to make money. Tips for safer play:

Healthy habits

  • Deposit limits

  • Loss limits

  • Time-outs (24 hours to 30 days)

  • Self-exclusion programs

  • Reality checks and session reminders

  • Account history and spending reports

Warning signs

You may need support if you notice:

  • Hiding or lying about gambling

  • Borrowing to fund play

  • Missing bills or obligations

  • Feeling anxious, guilty, or unable to stop
