Gambling Addiction Recognition and Management
Is there excessive gambling and how can one determine if it has gone out of control? If you have doubts, make a conscious effort to try and analyze your actions. The first thing that you have done is acknowledge that there is a problem which is something that needs to be taken seriously.
If you are concerned that you are dealing with a gambling addiction, here’s what you can do:
Voluntary self exclusion: Place restriction of access to your account for a certain period of time, which can also be permanent.
Cap on deposits and bets: Limit the amount of money that you deposit or spend, wager, or how long you spend during sessions.
We have included some measures that will aid responsible gambling as well as activity restriction. These modifications cannot be undone without giving a notice period of no less than 24 hours.
Tools for Self Regulation Provided
Deposit Limit
- Limit the total amount that you can deposit in a day, week, or month.
- When the limit is hit, no more funds can be deposited until the time frame elapses.
Loss Limit
- Set a predetermined amount of money that one is willing to lose at a specific time range, be it daily, weekly, or monthly.
- Once this cap is hit, one will be blocked from placing any real bets till the restriction expires.
Session Limit
- Limit the time that you want to play or gamble for.
- When you log in, a timer starts and when you reach the set limit, you are automatically logged out.
Betting Cap
- Capped amount that can be used for a series of wagers within a selected time frame.
- Once the cap is reached, no further wagers can be made until the cooldown period ends.
Cool Off Phase
- Select a short break to suspend action involving real money bets and deposits.
- This restriction does not allow for any changes invalidating it before the expiration date.
Self-Restriction
- Self restriction can be active for any length of time between 24 hours and two months.
- For more severe restrictions or permanently banned accounts, you should reach out to Customer Support.
- Once self-restiction is applied, there is no way to revert the change, so collected accounts are no longer accessible during this time.
- Be sure to exhaust any balance still remaining before setting self-restriction as that option becomes impossible to enact later.
- Even if self-restriction has been facilitates as an option for responsible gambling, we accept no responsibility for its circumvention and continued gambling by a user.
Avoiding Excessive Gambling
Following these guidelines can help manage the harm presented by gambling:
- Gambling should never be viewed as a financial solution.
- Do not raise bets in an attempt to make up for losses experienced previously.
- Tighten the rules for breaks and take several steps away from the game. These boundaries should never be crossed on impulse.
- Refrain from gambling using borrowed finances.
- Engage in social events, family activities, and personal pursuits as part of maintaining a harmonious life.
- Place bets only when and if calm, composed, and relaxed–do not engage in wagering under drugs or alcohols influence.
- Professional help should always be sought at the first sign of an out of control situation.
