Set limits before you start

Choose a spending budget you can afford to lose after essential expenses. Set a session time limit and take breaks. Never borrow to gamble, chase losses or play when distressed or under the influence.

Know when to pause

Spending more than planned, hiding your play, repeatedly chasing losses or neglecting daily responsibilities are reasons to stop and seek support. A bonus or an expiring offer is never a reason to exceed a limit.

Use the tools available

Ask the casino about deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion. Consider device-level blocking tools and gambling payment blocks from your bank where available. If you self-exclude, do not try to bypass the restriction through another account.

Talk to someone

Contact a trusted person or a qualified local gambling-support service. Gambling Therapy provides online support resources at gamblingtherapy.org. If you are in immediate danger, contact your local emergency service.
