Responsible Gambling

Introduction

At Shock Casino, we are committed to providing a safe and responsible gaming environment for all our players. We understand that gambling can be a form of entertainment, but it's essential to gamble responsibly and within one's means. As a licensed online casino, we adhere to the highest standards of regulatory compliance and support the promotion of safe gambling practices.

Responsible gambling is about treating gambling as a form of entertainment, not a source of income. We believe that our players should be able to enjoy their gaming experience without risking financial or personal harm.

What Is Responsible Gambling?

Responsible gambling means being aware of your betting limits and not exceeding them. It also involves recognizing the warning signs of problem gambling and taking steps to prevent it. Some common warning signs include:

• Increasing bet sizes to chase losses
• Gambling beyond affordable means
• Neglecting personal or professional responsibilities
• Feeling anxious or distressed about gambling

We encourage our players to be aware of these signs and take action if they feel that their gambling is becoming a problem.

Tools to Stay in Control

To help our players stay in control, we offer the following tools:

• Deposit Limits: Set limits on how much you can deposit into your account.
• Wagering Limits: Set limits on how much you can bet per spin or hand.
• Session Time Limits: Set time limits for your gaming sessions to prevent excessive play.
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders about your gaming activity and spending.
• Loss Limits: Set limits on losses to prevent excessive betting.
• Self-Exclusion Options: Exclude yourself from playing for a set period or permanently.

These tools are designed to help you maintain control over your gaming experience and prevent problem gambling.

How to Request Limits or Exclusion

To request limits or exclusion, simply log in to your account and navigate to the 'Responsible Gaming' section. From there, you can set deposit limits, wagering limits, session time limits, reality checks, loss limits, or self-exclude yourself from playing.

Alternatively, you can contact our customer support team via live chat, email, or phone, and we will assist you in setting up these tools.
