Gambling should cost only what you are comfortable spending on a night out, and it should never be a plan for making money. When it stops being fun, stop.
Limits and Breaks You Control
- A deposit limit sets the most you can pay in.
- A time limit sets how long a session may run.
- A cooling-off break freezes play for 24 hours or longer.
- Self-exclusion shuts the account for one month or six months, as a minimum.
No self-exclusion can be ended before its term. The account also stays shut after the term expires until you get in touch with support. Our team can help you set up any of these tools.
GAMSTOP and Blocking Software
We are licensed in Curaçao, and GAMSTOP does not cover our accounts. Signing up to GAMSTOP therefore does not bar you from registering here, so if you have joined it, please stay away. Gamban can block gambling websites, ours among them, on phones and computers.
Warning Signs to Take Seriously
Trying to win back what you lost is the plainest signal. Dipping into rent or bill money, borrowing to carry on and sessions running far past your plan belong alongside it. So do keeping your play secret from family and feeling on edge on days without a bet.
