Responsible Gaming
Introduction
Online gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. It is important to understand that casino games are games of chance, and the house always has a mathematical advantage. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, and never view gambling as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Play for fun, within your means, and always maintain control.
Age Verification
By accessing PayPal casino services through this website, you confirm that you are 18 years of age or older (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher). It is illegal for minors to gamble. If you are under the legal age, please do not proceed.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be aware of these warning signs:
- Spending more money or time gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or other difficult emotions
- Borrowing money to gamble or to repay gambling debts
- Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
- Lying about the extent of your gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, please seek help immediately.
