Lazer247 Responsible Gaming approach is designed to encourage informed betting, personal limits and awareness of the risks associated with gambling. This page explains how to set boundaries, recognise potential warning signs and find support if gambling becomes difficult to manage.
Gambling involves financial risk, and no tool or policy can remove that risk completely. Responsible gaming means understanding those risks, setting personal limits and using available tools to help manage your betting activity.
What Responsible Gaming Means?
Responsible gaming means understanding that gambling is entertainment rather than a way to earn income, recover previous losses or manage financial stress. If you’re betting within the limits that you’ve set yourself, it can be fun. Once it starts to grow past that point, without you realising, it can actually do some real damage. Responsible gaming is about being mindful of that line and taking action before it becomes an issue.
Before You Bet: A Simple Self-Check
Before you make any wager, consider the following questions:
- Have I set a gambling budget for today?
- Is the money I’m planning to gamble separate from money needed for rent, bills or essential expenses?
- Do I feel good about stopping at that point, no matter what happens?
- Does gambling take up time I would otherwise be spending with my family, at work or on other duties?
- Do I gamble to have fun, or to get back what I’ve lost?
If any of these questions raise concerns, consider taking a break before placing another bet.
Recognising Warning Signs
These are some of the patterns to consider.
- Spending more money or time than you intended to when you first started to bet.
- Taking out loans to bet with.
- Wasting time on gambling, and losing interest in work or relationships or in day-to-day activities as a result.
- Wanting to stop or cut back but continuing to gamble, or feeling distressed when trying to stop.
- Gambling to distract from or to deal with stress, negative emotions, or to avoid issues.
Any of these are not an indication that someone is hopelessly lost. They are indicators to stop and take a look.
Account Tools for Staying in Control
Lazer247 has multiple tools that enable users to manage their activity on the platform.
Deposit Limits
It allows users to set a maximum amount they can deposit over a defined period, such as a day, week or month. They can help users establish a spending boundary before betting begins.
Loss Limits
Loss limits, where available, allow users to set a maximum amount they are prepared to lose over a defined period. Once the applicable limit is reached, further betting may be restricted according to the platform’s rules.
Session Time Limits
It allows users to set a maximum amount of time for a betting session, helping reduce prolonged or unplanned gambling sessions.
Self-exclusion
This tool allows users to take a longer break from gambling by restricting access to their account for a selected period, where this feature is available.
These tools are designed to support personal decision-making, but they cannot eliminate the risks associated with gambling. Users should choose limits that reflect their own circumstances and seek support if gambling becomes difficult to manage.
Responsible Promotions
Lazer247 marketing materials are created with the aim of not targeting minors or people in vulnerable situations. Promotions are not designed to promote over- or under-betting.
If Gambling Is Becoming Difficult to Manage
Never raise your bets to make up for any losses. Don’t take out loans to keep going. Independent organisations that are not affiliated to a betting site can provide specialist support.
- Gamblers Anonymous is a peer support community for those who have a gambling problem. Gamblers Anonymous provides peer support for people who want help addressing gambling problems.
- Gambling Therapy offers free gambling therapy online and emotional support for anyone who is impacted by gambling, including family members. It is a service that works worldwide and provides multilingual resources.
There is also a national gambling helpline, depending on where you live. If you don’t know where to begin, finding a gambling helpline in your country is an excellent choice.
Our Limits as a Platform
Responsible-gaming tools are intended to support informed decision-making, but they cannot remove the risks associated with gambling or guarantee a particular outcome. The user is still responsible for their decision. If you feel you require assistance that can only be provided by one of the specialist organisations listed above, please contact one of them.
The availability and operation of responsible-gaming tools may change as the platform, services or applicable requirements are updated. Please check the latest information on the Lazer247 website before relying on a particular tool or feature.
