Responsible gaming
Set yourself limits
Most players see gambling as a form of entertainment and relaxation. However, some players gradually develop a dependency on gaming, owing to financial, domestic or personal issues.
Gaming in this way can cause problems if it brings more complications than pleasure into the player’s life, and if the player has lost their freedom to stop playing.
Various tools have been incorporated into this website to prevent people from developing a gaming addiction:
- Control your spending with deposit limits per day, week or month
- Take a break and suspend access to your account for a period of 1 day, 1 week or 1 month
Responsible gaming support and help organizations
If you think you might be addicted to gaming and would like to talk about this problem, you can call SOS JEUX on 0800 35 777. This number is free and available 24/7. To get information about responsible gaming, you can also consult the Gaming Clinic website or the Belgian Gaming Commission's official leaflet (PDF).
If you would like to block your access to casinos, gaming halls and online gaming websites, you can contact the Belgian Gaming Commission directly or submit a request for voluntary exclusion online. If you would like to submit this request on behalf of someone else, please submit the third party exclusion form.
