Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At C-SprayCanada, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, similar to going to the cinema or attending a sporting event. It should never be considered as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Casino games are designed with a house edge, meaning the odds always favour the operator in the long term.
Please gamble responsibly and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification & Legal Requirements
Gambling is only legal for individuals aged 18 years or over in the United Kingdom. By accessing and using any non-GamStop casino platform, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and meet all local legal requirements for your jurisdiction.
If you are under 18, please do not gamble. Underage gambling can cause serious harm to your development, finances, and wellbeing.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, problem gambling may be developing:
- Chasing losses: Attempting to recover money lost by gambling more
- Hiding gambling activity: Concealing the extent of your gambling from friends or family
- Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work, education, or family obligations due to gambling
- Increasing stakes: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
- Loss of control: Being unable to stick to predetermined spending limits
- Mood changes: Becoming irritable or anxious when unable to gamble
- Financial strain: Experiencing money problems or borrowing to fund gambling
- Failed attempts to stop: Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or quit gambling
- Using gambling to escape: Gambling to cope with stress, anxiety, or depression
- Lying about gambling: Being dishonest with others about time spent or money wagered
If you notice any of these signs, help is available and seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Self-Help Tools & Controls
Most reputable casino operators offer tools to help you maintain control over your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a session or period
- Session Time Limits: Restrict the amount of time you spend gambling in one session
- Reality Checks: Receive regular notifications during play reminding you how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from accessing casino platforms for a set period (typically 6 months to 5 years)
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gambling entirely
Use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits. Set limits before you start playing, not during or after.
