Set limits on the time and money you spend on gambling, and avoid gambling to recover losses. If play stops feeling manageable, pause and seek support.
Practical steps
- Use the operator’s limit, time-out or self-exclusion tools.
- Keep gambling separate from essential living expenses.
- Contact the operator for account restrictions or support options.

An informed approach to participation
Participation in gambling should not be treated as a source of income or a way to recover financial losses. Individuals should consider their own circumstances, avoid borrowing to play and stop when participation causes financial pressure, distress or conflict. Website verification does not remove the risks associated with gambling.
Tools, limits and support
Review the operator’s available account limits, break and exclusion tools before participating. If support is needed, seek an independent service and involve a trusted person where appropriate. Gambling Therapy provides information and support resources through its own website. IGCA does not provide clinical treatment or manage player accounts.
