Responsible Gaming
We want to ensure that all our customers play safely on our site, and we do not wish to have circumstances to lead anyone losing track of time and/or money spent while gambling.
In light of this, we need to signal the significance of our Responsible Gaming tools, which will enable each client to remain in charge of their gambling and keeping the experience fun. While we advocate the use of responsible gambling tools at any time point using our site, this message is especially relevant given the present circumstances.
Below, you’ll find a list of some of the Responsible Gaming tools we offer. Please do take the time to familiarize yourself with them.
Responsible Gambling
To have a great casino experience, you need to play responsibly at all times. So, what does it mean to play responsibly? To put it simply, it means that you never spend more than you can afford and that you never feel distressed, anxious or depressed when you’re playing.
Just like other things in life, casino games are great fun when you enjoy them responsibly. However, if you don't play responsibly, they can have a very negative impact on your overall well-being. Just like any other addiction, compulsive gambling is a serious issue that you shouldn't take lightly.
We want our casino to be a source of excitement, entertainment, and fun. The moment it’s not, we see it as a serious problem. That’s why you should take some time to read through this page. You’ll find information about tools that help you play responsibly and contact information to organisations that give expert help to people struggling with compulsive gambling and addiction.
How do I know if I’m playing responsibly?
Sometimes it can be hard to tell if your gaming is shifting from a healthy pastime to a compulsive behaviour.
The best thing is to pay a bit of attention so that you can discover any warning signs and address them before the situation gets worse. If you feel uncertain about your gaming habits you need to ask yourself these questions:
Are you borrowing money to play?
Are you staying away from your family for long periods of time just so you can play?
Are you playing with money allocated for food, rent, bills, or other household expenses?
Do you view your play as a source of income?
Are you playing secretly, not telling friends and family?
Do you frequently spend more money than you had planned at the beginning of a gaming session?
Are friends or family members concerned that you spend too much time playing casino games?
Do you get upset when you lose and feel a need of winning the money back?
Did you answer “yes” to any of these questions? If you did, you need to consider using our tools to restrict your gameplay.
Tools that help you play responsibly
We’ve created tools that’ll help you to keep track of and control your gameplay. You find these tools under My Profile – Limits.
The easiest way to manage your gaming is by setting limits. There are four limits you can choose from, and you can read more about them below.
Deposit Limit
This limit restricts the amount of money you’ll be allowed to deposit within a chosen timeframe. You can set the deposit limit to work on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.
Once you’ve reached the limit, you won’t be allowed to deposit until the limit is reset. You can lower your deposit limit at any time. If you raise it, the limit will be changed 24 hours after your request.
Self-Exclusion
If you lost control of your gaming, you need to take a step back and get some perspective. And the first step in that direction is to do a self-exclusion. This means you close your account for a specified period of time, and that you won’t be able to log in until the time is up.
This is a good way of creating some time for reflection. Contact Support and ask for a self-exclusion and they’ll make sure you get the help you need.
If you want to extend your self-exclusion, please contact our Support team here.
PayMe Casino is not liable for any funds being returned to a players' account balance due to errors made by a payment provider.
To learn more about how this works, contact support before you request your withdrawal, and they will assist you with the process.
