Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At Qbet, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We are committed to promoting responsible gaming and ensuring that our players can enjoy their experience safely and responsibly.
Please remember: the house always has an edge, and you should only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Gambling is only for those aged 18 years or older in the United Kingdom. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are of legal age to gamble in your jurisdiction. Qbet operates strict age verification procedures, and we reserve the right to verify your identity at any time.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Please be aware of the following warning signs:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or essential expenses
- Lying to friends and family about your gambling habits
- Feeling anxious or irritable when you're not gambling
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same level of excitement
- Failed attempts to reduce or control your gambling
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or accumulating debt to fund gambling
- Using gambling as an escape from stress, anxiety, or depression
If you recognise any of these signs in your behaviour, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Qbet provides several tools to help you gamble responsibly:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount of money you deposit into your account
- Loss Limits: Set limits on the amount of money you are willing to lose during a set period
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Take a break from gambling by temporarily or permanently closing your account
