Responsible Betting

At AmWager, we prioritize providing a safe and responsible gaming environment. Our goal is to ensure that our platform remains a source of enjoyment within the bounds of moderation and responsibility. Recognizing the signs of problem gambling and offering tools and resources to manage and prevent gambling addiction are central to our mission.

Understanding Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can significantly disrupt an individual’s life, impacting relationships, financial health, and mental well-being. While many people gamble without issue, for some, it can lead to significant problems.

Know the Signs

Being aware of the signs of problem gambling is crucial:

  • Spending more time or money on gambling than planned
  • Difficulty controlling or stopping gambling behaviors
  • Using gambling to escape problems or relieve negative emotions
  • Neglecting responsibilities or relationships due to gambling
  • Concealing gambling activities
  • Financial difficulties because of gambling

Responsible Betting Practices

We encourage responsible betting through:

  • Set Limits: Manage your gambling by setting deposit, loss, and time limits.
  • Self-Exclusion: Our self-exclusion tool allows for a temporary or permanent break from gambling.
