Responsible Gambling at Peace Hills Bingo

Understanding Safe and Balanced Gaming Habits

At Peace Hills Bingo, we want to ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable experience while gaming with us. We believe that responsible gaming is about balancing entertainment with awareness and self-control. It's essential to maintain a healthy balance between your gaming habits and other aspects of your life.

Gambling as Entertainment Rather Than Income

While it can be exciting to win, remember that gambling should never be viewed as a means of generating income. Treat each game as a form of entertainment, and don't stake more than you can afford to lose. This mindset will help you maintain control over your gaming activities.

Budgeting and Bankroll Management

Before starting any gaming session, set aside a budget for yourself. Determine how much you're willing to spend or win and stick to it. Don't chase losses by increasing the stakes or wagering more than you can afford.

Setting Limits: Deposit, Loss, Wager, and Session Limits

Peace Hills Bingo offers various tools to help you maintain responsible gaming habits:

• Deposit limits: Set a limit on how much you deposit into your account in a single transaction.
• Loss limits: Determine the amount of money you're willing to lose during a gaming session.
• Wager limits: Establish limits on individual wagers or bets to prevent over-spending.
• Session time reminders: Receive notifications to remind you of time spent playing and take breaks when needed.

Cooling-Off Periods and Self-Exclusion Tools

If you're experiencing difficulties with your gaming habits, we offer a range of cooling-off periods:

• 24-hour self-exclusion: Temporarily block access to your account for 24 hours.
• 7-day self-exclusion: Block access to your account for one week.
• 30-day self-exclusion: Take a longer break from your Peace Hills Bingo account.
