Responsible Gaming
Practical guidance for keeping paid play controlled, protecting essential funds and recognising when to stop.
Use Paid Play as Entertainment
Real-money or prediction-based activity can result in financial loss. It should not be treated as income, a debt solution or a guaranteed way to recover previous losses. Decide a fixed entertainment budget before starting and stop when that limit is reached.
Protect Essential Money
Do not use rent, food, education, medical, loan or household funds for paid play. Avoid borrowing money or increasing stakes after a loss. Chasing losses commonly increases risk rather than solving it.
Recognise Warning Signs
- Spending more time or money than planned.
- Borrowing money to continue.
- Hiding activity from family or friends.
- Feeling anxious, angry or unable to stop.
- Trying to recover losses through larger risks.
Protect Minors
Users must meet the platform's age requirement and applicable local law. Devices and payment methods should be protected so that minors cannot access paid activity.
Use Available Controls
Where the platform provides spending limits, cooling-off periods, self-exclusion or account closure, use those tools when activity becomes difficult to control. Support from a trusted person or qualified local service may also help.
