Responsible Gambling

SpeedyBet is dedicated to providing a safe and enjoyable online betting experience. We understand that for some individuals, gambling can transition from a harmless pastime into a serious problem. Our Responsible Gambling policy outlines the measures we have implemented to prevent problem gambling and to assist those who may be affected. We are committed to upholding the highest standards of player protection, working in accordance with our licensing authority's regulations and industry best practices. Our goal is to ensure that all our customers can enjoy their time at SpeedyBet responsibly, maintaining control over their betting activities.

Problem gambling can manifest in various ways, often impacting an individual's financial stability, relationships, and mental health. It is important to be aware of the signs, both in yourself and in others. If you notice any of the following behaviours, it may indicate a developing problem:

• Spending more money or time on gambling than you can afford.
• Feeling a need to be secretive about your gambling activities.
• Chasing losses, believing you can win back money you have lost.
• Gambling affecting your work, studies, or personal relationships.
• Feeling anxious, guilty, or depressed because of gambling.
• Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling.
• Thinking about gambling constantly.
• Becoming irritable or restless when trying to cut down on gambling.

If these signs resonate with your experience, or that of someone you know, we encourage you to seek assistance. SpeedyBet provides tools and resources to help you regain control.

Gambling should always be viewed as entertainment, not a source of income or a way to recover debts. To keep your gambling experience enjoyable and controlled, consider these guidelines:

• Gamble only with money you can afford to lose, never with funds allocated for essential expenses.
• Set strict limits on the time and money you spend gambling, and stick to them.
• Avoid gambling when you are feeling stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Balance gambling with other activities and hobbies.
• Do not view gambling as a solution to financial problems.
• Take regular breaks during your betting sessions.

By following these principles, you can help ensure that your time with SpeedyBet remains a positive experience.

SpeedyBet offers a range of tools designed to help you manage your gambling effectively. These tools are readily accessible within your account settings. We strongly recommend utilising them from the outset to establish clear boundaries for your betting activity.

• Deposit Limits: You can set a maximum amount of money you can deposit into your SpeedyBet account over a specific period (daily, weekly, or monthly). Once this limit is reached, you will be unable to deposit further funds until the period resets.
• Loss Limits: This feature allows you to define the maximum amount of money you are willing to lose over a set period (daily, weekly, or monthly). If your net losses reach this threshold, you will be prevented from placing further wagers until the limit period expires.
• Wager Limits: You can also set a maximum amount you are willing to wager over a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly). This helps control the overall volume of your betting activity.

You can adjust these limits at any time. Any request to increase a limit will typically take effect after a cooling-off period to allow for careful consideration. Decreases to limits usually take effect immediately.

If you feel you need a short break from gambling, SpeedyBet provides options for time-outs or cool-off periods. This allows you to temporarily restrict access to your account for a defined duration, such as 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During a time-out, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or place any bets. This feature is designed to give you a brief respite and an opportunity to reflect on your gambling habits without committing to a longer-term exclusion. You can activate a time-out directly from your account settings.

For individuals who feel their gambling has become problematic and require a longer break, SpeedyBet offers a comprehensive self-exclusion program. Self-exclusion allows you to voluntarily close your account and prevent yourself from gambling for a more extended period. Available self-exclusion periods typically range from six months to five years, or even permanently. During a self-exclusion, you will not be able to access your account, deposit funds, or place any bets on our platform. We will also take reasonable steps to ensure you do not receive any marketing materials from SpeedyBet during this time. To activate a self-exclusion, please visit the Responsible Gambling section in your account or contact our customer support team for assistance. Once a self-exclusion is set, it cannot be reversed until the chosen period has fully elapsed.

SpeedyBet is strictly committed to preventing underage gambling. It is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 (or the legal age of majority in their jurisdiction) to open an account or gamble on our platform. We employ robust age verification procedures during the registration process, requiring all customers to confirm they are of legal gambling age. We may also request additional documentation to verify identity and age. If we discover that an individual is underage, their account will be immediately closed, and any winnings forfeited. We urge parents and guardians to take measures to prevent minors from accessing gambling websites, such as using internet filtering software and monitoring online activity. Keeping your login details confidential is also crucial in preventing unauthorised access by minors.

To help you maintain awareness of your gambling activity, SpeedyBet offers 'Reality Checks' and session reminders. A Reality Check is a pop-up notification that appears at pre-set intervals (e.g., every 30 minutes or 60 minutes) during your betting session. This reminder will inform you of the time you have spent gambling, your net winnings or losses during that session, and provide options to continue playing, view your transaction history, or end your session. This tool is designed to encourage regular breaks and help you make informed decisions about continuing to gamble. You can customise the frequency of these reminders or activate them within your account settings.

Understanding your relationship with gambling is an important step towards responsible play. SpeedyBet encourages you to take a self-assessment test to evaluate your gambling habits. This confidential questionnaire asks a series of questions designed to help you recognise if your gambling may be becoming problematic. The results are for your personal reflection and are not stored by SpeedyBet. If the assessment indicates potential issues, it is a strong signal to consider utilising our responsible gambling tools, such as setting limits or taking a break. Our customer support team can also provide information on where to seek professional help, should you require it.
