What Is Responsible Gambling?

Responsible gambling means making informed choices about how much time and money you spend, understanding that gambling outcomes are based on chance and never treating gambling as a reliable way to earn income.

A healthy approach includes setting a budget before playing, taking regular breaks, avoiding borrowed money and stopping when gambling is affecting your wellbeing, finances or relationships.

Responsible Gambling Principles

Set a Budget

Decide how much you can comfortably afford to spend before playing. Never use money needed for bills, food, rent or other essentials.

Set Time Limits

Choose a clear playing period and take regular breaks. Avoid losing track of time during longer gaming sessions.

Do Not Chase Losses

Increasing your spending after a loss can lead to further financial harm. Accept the result and stop when your limit is reached.

Play for Entertainment

Gambling should remain a recreational activity. It should not be used as a solution to financial problems or emotional stress.

Healthy Gambling Habits

  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
  • Set spending and time limits before you begin.
  • Take regular breaks and avoid long uninterrupted sessions.
  • Do not gamble while upset, stressed, tired or under the influence.
  • Do not borrow money or use credit to continue playing.
  • Balance gambling with work, family, exercise and other activities.
  • Review your account activity and spending regularly.
  • Stop immediately if gambling no longer feels enjoyable or controlled.

What to Do If You Are Losing Control
