Responsible Gaming and Safer Limits
Responsible behaviour begins before a session: eligibility, local law, spending, time, emotional state and a clear stop decision all matter.
Set money boundaries first
Use only a small entertainment amount that does not affect food, housing, education, healthcare, debt or emergency savings.
Do not borrow, use credit intended for essentials or increase the limit after a loss. The original limit should remain the decision point.
- Entertainment money only
- No borrowing
- No chasing losses
Protect time and attention
Choose a session length, use an alarm and include breaks away from the screen. Stop if play interferes with sleep, work, study or relationships.
Avoid play when angry, distressed, tired or under the influence. Emotional pressure makes limits harder to follow.
- Set a timer
- Take cooling-off breaks
- Do not play under pressure
Know when to seek support
Warning signs include hiding activity, repeatedly exceeding limits, borrowing, chasing losses and feeling unable to stop.
Use blocking tools, payment limits, trusted-person support or professional help available in your area. Eligibility and local law must be checked before access.
- Recognise warning signs
- Use blocking or limit tools
- Seek qualified support
Frequently asked questions
Can a prediction remove financial risk?
No. Prediction references cannot guarantee outcomes or remove risk.
What is chasing losses?
It is increasing play or spending to try to recover earlier losses.
When should I stop?
Stop at the preset time or spending limit, and sooner if the activity causes stress or harms daily life.
