Responsible Play for Online Slots: Set Time and Spending Limits

Online slots are not a source of income, investment or solution to financial pressure. A limit set before play is easier to follow than one set after losses.

Create a stopping plan

Use discretionary money only. Decide a maximum spend and session length, enable reminders where available, and take breaks. Never borrow, use money for rent, food, bills or savings, or increase spend to recover losses.

Use controls early

Review any deposit limits, time-out, break or self-exclusion options offered by the service. If play causes stress, secrecy, conflict or financial problems, stop and seek confidential local support.
