Responsible Play at HoneyBetz

Responsible Play at HoneyBetz

At HoneyBetz, we want gambling in Canada to stay entertainment-focused. A healthier session starts with clear expectations, realistic budgets, and regular pauses. Play should never feel like a way to relieve financial pressure.

Navigation


Before you begin, set boundaries that fit your life outside the casino. Track both time spent and money used so your choices stay intentional. If gambling starts affecting routines or relationships, use our tools early and take space.

  • Keep gambling separate from bills, debt recovery, and everyday obligations.
  • Monitor your daily spend and your time online, not only wins.
  • Consider a gambling addiction quiz if you notice repeated loss of control.
  • Choose practical safeguards, like limits or a cooling-off break, sooner rather than later.

Recognizing Problem Gambling Signs

Problem gambling is not always about money. Behaviour changes can show up as secrecy, irritability, or a growing need to play more. In some cases, gambling becomes a way to avoid another issue entirely.

Because warning signs can be difficult to spot in the moment, we encourage regular self-checks. If several answers feel uncomfortable, treat it as a prompt to pause. Professional help is available, and acting early can reduce financial and social harm.

Quick Self-Check Questions

  • Do you spend more time or money gambling than you can afford?
  • Do you feel the need to bet more money more frequently?
  • Do you gamble to escape problems or relieve difficult feelings?
  • Have you tried to cut down or stop but could not?
  • Do you feel restless or irritable when cutting down or stopping?

HoneyBetz Responsible Gaming

We are committed to a safe, responsible gaming environment and take prevention seriously. We monitor for signs of risky patterns and may reach out when support seems appropriate. Our staff also receives regular responsible gaming training to help them recognize concerns and respond properly.

Our approach focuses on tools, education, and support systems that help you stay in control. Responsible play also includes protecting households and accounts from underage access. We do not allow anyone under 18 years of age to open an account.

Eight Rules for Safer Betting

  1. Casino bets are for fun, not a career path.
  2. Never double up simply to win back losses.
  3. Set a daily, weekly, or monthly budget you can afford.
  4. Do not play for money when intoxicated, tired, or feeling down.
  5. Watch how long you are online and track bets placed.
  6. Take breaks to stay fresh and avoid fatigue-driven decisions.
  7. Set a budget before starting and stick with it.
  8. Enjoy yourself, and stop when it stops being enjoyable.

Protecting Minors at Home

  • Do not share your log-in details with anyone.
  • Do not enable the “remember password” option on log-in screens.
  • Do not share credit card or bank account details with minors.
  • Install parental control or internet filter software when needed.

If you have questions or concerns about responsible gaming, contact our support team. We can help you choose the right controls for your account and situation.

Tool Timing & Cooling-Off

Our responsible gaming tools are designed for practical control, not vague reminders. You can set limits, receive reality checks, and use self-exclusion when you need distance. These options are available inside your account, so changes are clear and trackable.

Responsible Gaming Tools and Timing

Tool When It Applies Key Details
Deposit limits (daily/weekly/monthly) Daily: 24 hours; Weekly: 168 hours
  • Helps control the amount you spend; limits consider the amount deposited during the previous period.
  • Set in “My Account” → “Responsible Gaming” using “Daily Limit”, “Weekly Limit” or “Monthly Limit”.
  • Combination of limits can be used for extra control.
Lowering or setting a deposit limit Immediate Any request to lower your deposit limit before the relevant period has ended (or to set a limit) takes effect immediately.
Increasing or removing a deposit limit 24 hours (cooling-off) This is to give you time to reconsider raising the limit; it will not take effect for 24 hours.
Reality checks (play-time/spend reminders) While playing (notifications)
  • Reminds you how long you’ve been playing and how much you’ve spent.
  • Alerts you if you start to play more than you want to.
Session limits Instant (minimum duration: 6 minutes) Session-limit restriction takes effect instantly.
Self-exclusion (definite or indefinite) Immediate (when requested)
  • Implemented immediately, with no attempts to induce you to continue playing.
  • During self-exclusion, you will not be able to access gaming services (withdrawals are not prevented).
  • Encouraged timeframes: 24 Hours, 48 Hours, 7 Days, 30 Days, 90 Days, 180 Days, 365 Days, Indefinite.
Reopening after self-exclusion At least 24 hours (definite); 7 days (indefinite) Access may be granted after at least a 24-hour cooling-off period for a definite exclusion, and 7 days for an indefinite exclusion.
Underage protection Always in effect
  • No one under 18 may open an account.
  • Do not share log-in details or credit card/bank account details with minors.
  • Install parental control or internet filter software if persons under 18 are in your household.

Self-exclusion is voluntary and available for definite or indefinite timeframes. During self-exclusion, you cannot access gaming services, but withdrawals are not blocked. If you request removal later, we may ask for an explanation and evidence of safer, sustainable play.

If you want a lighter first step, start with deposit limits or session limits, then enable reality checks. These controls work best when set before play starts to feel stressful.
