Self-regulation tools for responsible gambling

Gambling online should be a fun and entertaining activity, and to make sure they are enjoyed in a healthy and sustainable way, online casinos offer a range of tools for self-regulation.

This page provides an overview of the tools provided at Yuugado to promote safer gambling habits and we hope, answer a few general questions about how they work.

What are online casino deposit limits?

Deposit limits are tools that let players set an upper limit on the amount of money they can deposit into their accounts over a given time period. If used properly, deposit limits help players stick to their budget and prevent them from spending more than they can afford.

What are loss limits?

Loss limits give players the chance to set the maximum amount they can lose while playing over a set time.

When the player hits their loss limit, they will be prevented from placing any more wagers until the time has elapsed.

How do play time limits help?

Playing time limits are an important tool for helping players manage their gambling, as they can effectively limit the length of time players can spend gambling.

It can be easy to lose track of time while playing, and by setting session limits, players can make the most out of their time.

Yuugado offers two types of time limit. The first, called a Reality Check, is just a reminder of how much time you’ve spent playing. The harder option is called a Session Limit and logs you out when you reach the limit.

What is a Time-out Period?

Time-outs give players the ability to lock themselves out of their accounts for a short time. This is a great option for players who want a bit of a break, and is a good time to reflect on your gambling habits.

At Yuugado we recommend scheduling frequent Time-out periods to keep yourself grounded.

How does Self-exclusion work?

Self-exclusion is like a time-out, but for players who want a longer break from gambling.

Using self-exclusion, players can block access to their account for a set amount of time, e.g., from a few weeks to a few months or more.

Why is it important to check my account history?

One way of helping players keep in control of their budget is to give them the tools to know how much they are spending from day to day. This may seem like common sense, but it’s easy to lose track.

We recommend players review their transaction history on a regular basis, as this will make it easier for them to judge their spending and adjust when necessary.

Summary

Online casinos offer a range of tools to help players restrict and regulate their gambling. For instance, deposit and loss limits help players stick to a financial budget. Session limits and reality checks, meanwhile, help to remind players how much time they spend on site.

By providing players with these tools, Yuugado hopes to promote healthy and responsible attitudes towards gambling.
