Responsible Gambling

Updated: July 28, 2026

Gambling should be optional entertainment for adults who are legally permitted to participate. It should never be treated as a reliable way to earn money, solve debt, or recover a previous loss.

Set Limits Before Starting

• Decide how much time and money you can afford to spend.
• Do not use money required for food, housing, education, bills, or debt.
• Do not increase a limit after a loss.
• Take regular breaks and avoid playing when upset or under pressure.
• Never borrow money to gamble.

Warning Signs

Warning signs can include hiding activity, spending more than planned, repeatedly trying to recover losses, missing responsibilities, borrowing money, or feeling anxious when not playing. A single sign can be a reason to pause and review the situation.

Steps You Can Take

Stop using the service, remove saved access links, discuss the situation with a trusted person, and use any account limit, timeout, or self-exclusion controls currently available. Financial institutions may also provide tools for controlling gambling-related payments.

Protecting Minors

Keep account credentials private, do not leave an active session open, and use device-level parental controls where appropriate. Gambling services must not be used by minors.

Getting Support

If gambling is causing financial, emotional, or relationship harm, seek help from a qualified local health professional or an established responsible-gambling support organisation available in your location. In an immediate mental-health emergency, contact local emergency services.
