Safe and Balanced Gambling Habits

Gambling should be treated as entertainment, not a way to make money. Set realistic expectations about winning or losing, and never chase losses by betting more than you can afford.

• Keep your gambling balanced with other aspects of your life.
• Avoid impulsive decisions while under the influence of substances or during stressful periods.
• Don't gamble as an emotional escape from problems.

Budgeting for Your Gaming Experience

Set a budget before playing, including how much you're willing to spend and win. Consider implementing:

• Deposit limits: cap your deposits per day/week/month
• Loss limits: set a maximum amount of losses you can incur in one session
• Wager limits: limit the minimum bets you place during play

These tools are designed to help you control spending, preventing significant financial damage.

Reality Checks and Time Reminders

To ensure a healthy gaming experience:

• Activate reality checks: regular reminders about your playing time and net results will pop up.
• Set session time limits: allow yourself scheduled breaks between gaming sessions
• Receive time spent updates periodically to maintain responsible play

Implementing these tools will help you stay within your budget, maintaining control over your gaming experience.

Cooling-Off Periods

If you feel the need for a break or want more support:

1. Self-exclusion: remove access from your account
2. Cooling-off periods: pause gameplay for various amounts of time

These options give you space to assess and adjust your betting habits without pressure.
