Responsible Gambling at Stake
At Stake, we are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable gaming environment. Gambling should always remain a form of entertainment, never a way to make money or escape personal problems. We encourage all our players to gamble responsibly and stay in control of their habits.
Our Commitment to Player Safety
Stake provides a range of tools and resources designed to help you maintain a healthy relationship with gambling. We believe that informed players make better decisions, and we strive to create a transparent platform where you can enjoy your experience with confidence.
Self-Management Tools
We offer several features to help you stay in control of your gambling activity:
- Deposit limits — set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you can deposit
- Loss limits — define a maximum amount you are willing to lose within a set period
- Wager limits — control the total amount you wager over a chosen timeframe
- Session time reminders — receive notifications about how long you have been playing
- Self-exclusion — temporarily or permanently restrict access to your account
- Cooling-off periods — take a short break from gambling activity
Signs of Problem Gambling
It is important to recognise when gambling may be becoming a problem. Consider the following warning signs:
- Spending more money or time on gambling than you can afford
- Chasing losses by continuing to gamble after losing
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
- Neglecting work, studies, or personal relationships due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritated, or restless when not gambling
- Lying to others about your gambling habits
- Using gambling as a way to cope with stress or emotional difficulties
If you recognise any of these behaviours in yourself or someone you know, we encourage you to seek support immediately.
Self-Assessment Questions
Ask yourself the following questions to evaluate your gambling behaviour:
| Do you gamble with money you cannot afford to lose? |
| Have you tried to win back money you previously lost? |
| Has gambling caused any financial difficulties for you? |
| Do you feel the need to gamble with increasing amounts? |
| Do you feel guilty or anxious about your gambling? |
If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, it may be time to reassess your gambling habits and consider using our self-management tools.
