Responsible Gaming
Playing responsibly is our top priority
At Gate Sof Luck, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. While lottery games are designed to be entertaining, we recognize that for some individuals, they can become problematic. We encourage all our players to set limits and play responsibly.
1. Recognizing Problem Gambling
Signs that gambling may be becoming a problem:
- Spending more money or time than intended
- Chasing losses or gambling to escape problems
- Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble
- Feeling anxious or irritable when not gambling
2. Setting Time Limits
Manage your gaming time effectively:
- Set a timer or alarm when you start playing
- Take regular breaks during gaming sessions
- Balance gambling with other leisure activities
- Use our self-imposed timeout feature (1 day to 6 weeks)
3. Financial Limits
Control your gambling expenditure:
- Set a budget and stick to it
- Never gamble with money you can't afford to lose
- Use our deposit limit tools in account settings
