ResponsibleGambling
Betting and casino games should stay entertaining. Here's how to recognize the warning signs, the tools we offer to help you stay in control, and where to find support.
Recognizing the Signs
It helps to know what to watch for, in your own play or in someone close to you.
- Chasing losses by increasing bet size or frequency.
- Betting more money or time than you originally planned.
- Hiding your betting activity from family or friends.
- Neglecting work, studies or relationships because of gambling.
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to play.
Tools We Provide
01
Deposit Limits
Set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much you can deposit, so spending stays within a plan you set in advance.
02
Self-Exclusion
Temporarily or permanently close your account if you need a break from betting and casino play.
03
Reality Checks
Enable session reminders that show how long you've been playing and how much you've spent.
04
Time-Outs
Pause your account for a short, fixed period without going through a full self-exclusion.
Tips for Staying in Control
- Decide on a budget before you start playing, and stop once you reach it.
- Take regular breaks, especially during longer sessions.
- Avoid trying to win back losses in a single session.
- Don't play when you're stressed, upset or under the influence of alcohol.
- Use the deposit limit and reality check tools proactively, not just when a problem appears.
Entertainment, Not Income
Sports betting and casino games are a form of entertainment, not a way to make money, and every bet carries financial risk. You must be at least 18 years old to hold a MegaPari account.
