Responsible Gaming
Gambling should always be a form of entertainment — never a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If the fun stops, it’s time to step back. Always play within your means and never chase losses.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years or older (or the legal gambling age in your Indian state) to participate in any real-money game. We encourage all users to verify their age honestly. Underage gambling is illegal and harmful.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following in yourself or someone close to you, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to win back money
- Hiding gambling activity from family or friends
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to cut down
- Gambling with money meant for rent, bills, or essentials
- Lying about time or money spent gambling
- Borrowing or selling possessions to fund gambling
- Neglecting work, studies, or relationships due to gambling
Self-Help Tools
Most responsible gaming platforms offer practical tools to help you stay in control. We encourage you to use them:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, week, or month.
- Loss Limits: Cap the amount you are willing to lose in a given period.
- Reality Checks: Receive reminders about how long you have been playing.
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently block your access to gambling services.
