Deposit and time limits
From your account you can set a deposit limit by day, by week or by month, and a daily limit on how long you play. A decrease takes effect immediately. An increase does not: it applies only 24 hours after you request it, and you can cancel it at any point in that window. The delay is deliberate — it exists so that a decision to spend more is never made in the same moment as the impulse to make it.
Reality checks and your activity history
A reality check is a reminder that interrupts play at an interval you choose and tells you how long you have been playing and what you have spent in that session. Separately, your account holds your full activity history: deposits, withdrawals, plays and results. It is worth reading occasionally even if nothing feels wrong — the record is more accurate than memory.
Take a Break and Game Break
Take a Break shuts your account for a short, fixed period when you simply want to stop for a while. Game Break (Voluntary Self-Exclusion) is the longer, formal option: it closes access for the term you choose and cannot be reversed early. Choosing one does not close your account permanently and does not affect any balance you hold.
