Safer Play

Before you play

Pick a budget you would be fine losing and a time to stop. Write both down before you deposit. When either runs out, the session is over.

Signs to watch for in yourself

• You chase losses with bigger bets.
• You borrow money, or use money meant for bills, to keep playing.
• You hide how much or how often you gamble.
• You feel restless or irritable when you try to cut back.
• Gambling eats into your sleep or your work.

Tools most licensed sites offer

• Deposit limits cap what you can add each week or month.
• Time-outs lock your account for a short break.
• Self-exclusion closes your account for a longer stretch. Ask support to set it up if you cannot find it in your settings.
