Session Limits: Auto-logout after a set time period

Self-Exclusion: Block access to your account (temporary or permanent)

Reality Checks: Pop-up reminders of time spent and money wagered

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

  • Gambling with money needed for bills, food, or rent
  • Hiding gambling from family or friends
  • Feeling the need to gamble larger amounts for the same excitement
  • Repeated failed attempts to cut down or quit
  • Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or depression
  • Chasing losses (gambling more to win back lost money)
  • Neglecting work, school, or relationships because of gambling

Tips for Safe Gambling

  1. Set a budget and stick to it — only gamble what you can afford to lose
  2. Treat gambling as entertainment, not income
  3. Never borrow money to gamble
  4. Take regular breaks
  5. Don't gamble when upset, stressed, or drinking
  6. Play slower games; avoid high-speed betting
  7. Keep gambling social and public (not alone at night)
