What is responsible gaming?
Responsible gaming means playing within your means. It is about understanding risks and using tools to stay in control. If you ever feel gambling is getting too intense, take a break and seek support.
How we promote safe play
We encourage clear boundaries and healthy habits. Our guidance for players includes:
- Set deposit, loss, and time limits with operators
- Take regular breaks during play
- Use reality checks to monitor time spent
- Consider self-exclusion if you need a longer break
For more tools and details, see our Safe Gaming page.

How we evaluate casinos
We review each operator's responsible gaming measures. We look for clear information, available tools, and help resources. Our evaluation method is outlined on our How We Evaluate Casinos page.
Your responsibilities
Gambling should be a form of entertainment. Set a budget, know when to stop, and seek help if you notice warning signs in yourself or someone you know.
