Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Ace of Shades Global, we believe that online gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Gambling should never be viewed as a way to earn money, solve financial problems, or generate income. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years old (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use our services. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under the legal age, please do not attempt to register or gamble.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Please be aware of the following warning signs that may indicate problem gambling:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
- Hiding your gambling activity or lying about the amount you gamble
- Spending increasing amounts of time or money on gambling
- Feeling anxious or irritable when you try to cut down or stop
- Neglecting family, work, or other important responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
- Failed attempts to control, cut back, or stop gambling
- Gambling as a way to escape problems or relieve stress
- Experiencing mood swings or emotional distress related to gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Safer Gambling Features
Most reputable online casinos offer tools to help you maintain control over your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a limit on the amount you are willing to lose over a set period
- Session Time Limits: Receive reminders or automatic logouts after a set period of play
- Reality Checks: Enable notifications that remind you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
