Responsible gambling

Gambling should be entertainment, not a way to make money. You must be of legal age in your country (18+, or 19+ in Ontario) to gamble.

Keep it safe

  • Set a deposit limit before you start. Every licensed casino offers one.
  • Decide how much you can afford to lose, and stop when it's gone.
  • Never chase losses or gamble to solve money problems.
  • Take breaks, and use reality checks and time limits.

Warning signs

Spending more than you planned, hiding gambling from others, borrowing to gamble or feeling anxious when you are not playing can all be signs of a problem.
