Play for fun, not for income
Gambling should always be a form of entertainment — never a way to solve financial problems or recover losses. Reel Raven is committed to supporting safer gambling and providing the tools you need to stay in control.
Tools you can use
- Deposit limits — set daily, weekly or monthly caps on what you can deposit. Reductions take effect immediately; increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period.
- Loss limits — cap the amount you can lose in a given period.
- Session limits — limit how long you can play in a single session.
- Reality checks — pop-up reminders showing how long you have been playing.
- Time-out — close your account temporarily for 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days.
- Self-exclusion — close your account for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently.
Warning signs
Consider seeking help if any of the following apply to you:
- You spend more time or money on gambling than you intended.
- You chase losses by increasing your stakes.
- You hide your gambling from friends or family.
- Gambling affects your work, studies, relationships or sleep.
- You borrow money or sell possessions to fund gambling.
- You feel anxious, irritable or depressed when not gambling.
