Responsible Gambling

At StayCasino Reviews, we are committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling. Gambling can be an enjoyable form of entertainment, but it carries risks. This page outlines the tools available to help you stay in control and where to seek help if gambling becomes a problem.

Gambling Should Be Entertainment

Responsible gambling means treating casino games as a form of entertainment — not as a way to make money or solve financial problems. Before you play, consider the following principles:

• Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
• Set a budget before you start and stick to it
• Set a time limit for each session
• Never chase losses
• Treat any winnings as a bonus, not an expectation
• Take regular breaks away from gambling
• Do not gamble when you are stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs

Responsible Gambling Tools at Stay Casino

Stay Casino provides a range of tools to help you manage your gambling activity. These tools can be accessed through your account settings:

Deposit Limits

You can set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much money you add to your account. Limit reductions take effect immediately; increases are subject to a 24-hour cooling-off period.

Loss Limits

Loss limits allow you to cap the amount you can lose within a defined period. Once the limit is reached, no further play is possible until the period resets.

Session Time Limits and Reminders

Set reminders to alert you when you've been playing for a defined period. Session time limits will automatically end your session at your chosen duration.

Reality Checks

Reality check notifications remind you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered during a session, helping you stay aware of your activity.

Cool-Off Period

A cool-off period temporarily suspends your account for a defined time (typically 24 hours to 6 weeks), giving you a break without permanent closure.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel gambling is becoming a problem, you can self-exclude from Stay Casino for a period of 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. Self-exclusion prevents you from logging in or accessing the casino. To self-exclude, contact Stay Casino support directly via live chat.
