What Is Responsible Gambling?

Responsible gambling means staying in control of your play. It includes:

• Setting time and deposit limits before you start
• Avoiding chasing losses or using gambling to solve personal issues
• Treating gaming as entertainment, not income
• Knowing when to take a break — or stop completely

How OMG96 Supports Safer Play

Player Protection Tools

• Deposit Limits: Set daily/weekly/monthly limits from your account settings
• Reality Checks: Timely reminders about your active session and spend
• Session Timers: Cap your session length and auto-logout on timeout
• Cool-Off (Time-Out): Temporarily pause play for a chosen period
• Self-Exclusion: Request a longer block (e.g., 3–6 months or permanent)

Fair & Secure Platform

• Certified RNG: Independent testing ensures fair outcomes
• 18+ Policy: Strict age verification to protect minors
• Data Encryption: Personal and payment data are protected

Spotting the Warning Signs

• Hiding gambling from family or friends
• Borrowing money to continue playing
• Playing longer or spending more than planned
• Feeling anxious, guilty, or irritable when not playing
• Skipping work/study/social events because of gambling

Quick Self-Assessment

Ask yourself:

• Do I regularly spend more time or money than I intend?
• Have I tried to win back losses?
• Has gambling affected my work, studies, or relationships?
• Do I feel stressed when I think about my gambling?

If you answered “yes” to any of the above, consider taking a break, setting stricter limits, or speaking to a professional.
