Responsible gambling

Keep gambling in perspective

Treat casino play as entertainment with a cost, not as a way to earn an income or solve a money problem. No casino, licence, game or strategy can promise you a profit.

• Decide what you can afford to lose before you start. Keep money for essentials separate.
• Choose a time to stop and use a reminder. Take regular breaks away from the screen.
• Do not borrow money to gamble or try to win back a loss by playing more.
• Avoid gambling when you are upset, under pressure or affected by alcohol or other substances.
• Keep other interests and time with people you care about in your routine.

A limit is only useful if you can keep it. If you repeatedly raise it or ignore it, step away and speak with someone who can help.

When it is time to pause

Gambling harm can show up in everyday life before it feels like a crisis. Notice whether you are hiding your play, spending more than planned, losing sleep or thinking about gambling when you want to be doing something else.

Other warning signs include borrowing to continue, arguments about money, missing responsibilities or feeling that the next game has to recover what you lost. You do not need to count a certain number of signs to take them seriously.

If any of this feels familiar, pause your play. Tell someone you trust and use one of the support services below. Asking for help is a practical step, not something you need to justify.

How to put some distance between you and gambling

Log out of your casino accounts and close the pages. Turn off casino notifications, remove saved shortcuts and unsubscribe from marketing messages. A break is easier when fewer reminders are competing for your attention.

Ask each casino about its account limits, time-out or self-exclusion options. If you want to stop, state clearly that you want the account restricted for gambling-related reasons. Ask for confirmation and keep a copy of the reply.

Device blocking tools and gambling blocks offered by some banks can add another barrier. Availability differs, so ask your bank and use an established support service for help choosing appropriate tools. Do not move to another casino to get around a limit or an exclusion.

Independent help is available

You can also talk to a health professional or a gambling-support service in your own country. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services now.

If you are worried about someone else

Choose a calm moment and describe what you have noticed without turning the conversation into an argument. Listen, explain how the situation affects you and encourage the person to speak to a support service.

You can seek help for yourself even if they are not ready. Protect money needed for your own essentials and avoid taking on debts to keep someone gambling. GamCare and Gambling Therapy can also support people affected by another person’s gambling.

Protecting children and young people

Anjouan Casinos’s casino content is for adults aged 18 or over, or the higher minimum age that applies in their location. Keep casino accounts, passwords and devices out of children’s reach. Do not let a child use an adult’s gambling account.

If a young person has been gambling, respond with support and seek appropriate help. A trusted adult, health professional or specialist support service can help them take the next step.

What Anjouan Casinos can and cannot do

We publish casino information. We cannot access your casino account, apply a restriction or provide counselling. For account controls, contact the casino directly. For personal support, contact an independent service using the links above.

An Anjouan licence does not remove the risks of gambling. If gambling is causing harm, the right next step is support and a break from play, rather than choosing another casino.
