Responsible Gambling at Locowin Casino: Your Guide to Safe and Balanced Play
Understanding the Risks of Problematic Gaming

As a responsible online gaming platform, we encourage you to approach our games with an understanding that they are designed for entertainment purposes only. Not every player will experience luck or achieve consistent wins; some may encounter losing streaks. If you're aware of these risks and choose to play within your means, you can maintain control over your gaming habits.

Budget and Bankroll Management

It's essential to allocate a specific budget for your online gaming activities each month. This helps ensure that you don't spend more than what is comfortable or sustainable. Our system will ask if you'd like to set deposit limits during registration; it is also possible to alter these parameters at any point through our member area.

Deposit, Loss, Wager, and Session Limits

To prevent overindulgence in gaming activities, we have put in place a variety of tools that allow you to set realistic boundaries. Please consider setting limits for:

  • Deposit Limits: The maximum amount you are willing or able to deposit within a specified timeframe
  • Loss Limits: A limit on the total losses incurred during your active game period (the period between opening and closing the game) per day, week, fortnight, month, etc.
  • Wager Limit: This is used when playing progressive slots or jackpot games. It restricts the number of times you can place bets with a maximum value over 24 hours, in turn stopping you from reaching an extreme high stake quickly
  • Session Limits: A limit on the total amount spent during each gaming session.

Reality Checks and Time Reminders

We understand that sometimes losing track of time or real-time expenditure can occur. Therefore, we're implementing various tools to support more mindful play:

Automatic Reality Checks

You will be prompted throughout your gaming sessions about how long you've been playing. If needed, this feature allows a short interval between plays (approximately 5 minutes) before proceeding with another round.

Time Reminders via SMS/Emails/App Notifications

For peace of mind or if worried about excessive play duration, users may opt-in to receive scheduled alerts reminding them after set intervals have passed.

Cooling-Off Periods and Self-Exclusion Tools

In addition to deposit limits mentioned previously:

  • A Cooling Off can be chosen at any stage in your account history to stop further gaming activities on the website for a short time or period while still keeping access open.
  • If needed, you may opt out of our platform through self-exclusion tools which will block your details from ever being associated with new accounts created.

Account Verification and Age Restrictions

Protecting minors is paramount. We take an active role in verifying account holders' ages during registration by requiring identification documents that prove age for players under 18.

Warning Signs of Problematic Gaming

Be aware that several signs can indicate you may be exhibiting unhealthy habits while gaming:

  • Feeling a strong compulsion or need to engage with games despite ongoing losses
  • Continuously spending more than initially allocated and feeling as though these funds cannot meet the level spent
  • Increasing frequency and/or duration of gaming sessions due to desperation for profit from each session.
  • Difficulty controlling gambling in your life, using deceitful means such as lying about financial information or attempting other underhanded tactics.

Support Organisations or Professional Help Resources

If you feel that gaming habits have become problematic, we strongly recommend reaching out directly via phone and seeking professional advice from services dedicated to assisting those suffering from gambling addiction:

  • National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG)
  • Gamblers Anonymous
  • International Centre for Youth Gambling Research and Prevention
