Responsible Gambling

At Rabbit Road, we are deeply committed to promoting responsible gambling and ensuring the safety and well-being of all our players. Gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a source of stress or financial hardship. We recognise that for some individuals, gambling can become problematic, and we take our role seriously in helping players maintain control and make informed decisions. Our goal is to provide a safe, transparent, and supportive environment where players can enjoy our games responsibly. Through education, practical tools, and dedicated support, Rabbit Road strives to protect players from harm and foster a culture of responsible gambling.

What Is Responsible Gambling

Responsible gambling means engaging in gambling activities in a way that is safe, controlled, and balanced with other aspects of life. It involves understanding that gambling is entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems. Players should always gamble within their means, set clear limits on time and money spent, and avoid chasing losses. Gambling should never interfere with personal relationships, work, or mental health. Responsible gambling also means being aware of your behaviour while playing, recognising warning signs, and knowing when to stop.

Understanding Gambling Risks

Gambling carries inherent risks that every player should understand before participating. Gambling is not an investment; the house always has an advantage, known as the house edge. Emotional decision-making — such as chasing losses or gambling to relieve stress — increases the likelihood of harm. Financial risks include spending more than you can afford, which may lead to debt or hardship. It is essential to recognise that gambling outcomes are based on chance and not influenced by strategy or systems.

Guidelines for Safe Gambling

To keep gambling safe and enjoyable, consider the following guidelines:

• Set strict time limits before you start gambling.
• Establish a budget you can afford to lose and never exceed it.
• Never chase losses — accept them as part of gambling.
• Avoid gambling when stressed, upset, or under the influence.
• Treat gambling as leisure, not income.
• Take regular breaks to maintain a clear mindset.
• Use Rabbit Road’s responsible gambling tools.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can manifest through behavioural, emotional, or financial signs:

• Gambling more frequently or for longer than planned
• Hiding or lying about gambling behaviour
• Neglecting work, school, or home responsibilities
• Borrowing money to gamble
• Feeling guilt, anxiety, or irritability related to gambling

If you or someone you know exhibits these signs, early action is crucial.

Self-Control Tools and Limits

Rabbit Road provides a range of tools to help maintain responsible play:

• Deposit Limits
• Session Time Limits
• Loss Limits
• Cooling-Off Periods
• Self-Exclusion

These tools can be adjusted through your account settings at any time.
