Responsible gambling

Slots are entertainment, and every real-money spin can lose. This page sets out the warning signs, the limits worth setting and where to find free, confidential help.

Last updated 5 November 2026

Before you play for real money

  • You must be of legal age where you live: 18 or older, and 19 in most Canadian provinces.
  • Only use money you can afford to lose. Never borrow to play.
  • Set a budget and a time limit before you start, and stop when you reach either.
  • Do not chase losses: the next spin does not know about the last one.

Warning signs

  • You spend more money or time than you planned.
  • You hide your play from people close to you.
  • You play to escape stress or to win back what you lost.
  • Gambling affects your work, your relationships or your bills.

Where to get help

If any of this sounds familiar, talk to someone. Help is free and confidential. Operators also offer deposit limits and self-exclusion, and you can ask for them at any time.
