Managing Your Play Responsibly with Spinit

We are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable gaming environment. To support this commitment, we offer a range of tools that allow you to manage your gameplay directly through your Spinit account settings.

Setting Limits for Controlled Play

Proactive limit setting is a key aspect of responsible gambling. Spinit provides several options to help you maintain control over your gaming activity.

  • **Deposit Limits:** You can set a maximum amount you wish to deposit within a chosen period (daily, weekly, or monthly). This helps in managing your budget and preventing overspending.
  • **Loss Limits:** This feature allows you to define the maximum amount you are willing to lose over a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly). Once this limit is reached, you will be unable to continue playing with real money until the period resets.
  • **Session Limits:** Control the duration of your gaming sessions by setting a maximum time you wish to play. You will be notified when your session time is nearing its end, and the system will automatically end your session if the limit is reached.

These limits can be adjusted at any time through your account settings. Please note that any decrease in limits will take effect immediately, while any increase will be subject to a 24-hour waiting period to ensure considered decision-making.

Additional Tools for Enhanced Control

Beyond financial and time-based limits, Spinit offers further tools to support a balanced approach to gaming.

  • **Reality Checks:** These are periodic reminders, displayed at set intervals, showing your current playing time and any net winnings or losses during that period. They serve as a prompt to assess your ongoing gameplay.
  • **Cool-Off Period:** If you wish to take a short break from gaming without closing your account permanently, you can opt for a cool-off period ranging from 24 hours to six weeks. During this time, you will be unable to log in or play.
  • **Self-Exclusion:** For a more definitive break, self-exclusion allows you to block access to your account for a longer period, from six months to permanently. This is a significant step and can be requested through our customer support.

Activating or adjusting these tools is straightforward. Navigate to the 'Responsible Gambling' section within your account settings. Here you will find clear options to set your preferred limits, enable reality checks, and initiate cool-off periods or self-exclusion.

Support and Resources

We encourage all players to familiarise themselves with these tools. Should you require assistance or wish to discuss your gambling habits, please do not hesitate to contact our 24/7 customer support via live chat or email at support@spinit.com. We also provide links to external organisations dedicated to responsible gambling and problem gambling support.

Maintaining a Balanced Approach to Gaming

At Spinit, we believe that gaming should be a source of entertainment, not a solution to financial concerns. It is important to recognise when your gambling habits may be shifting from recreational to problematic. We encourage you to approach your gaming with a mindful perspective and to be aware of the signs that might indicate a need for adjustment.

Recognising Potential Challenges

Certain behaviours can signal that gambling is becoming more than just a pastime. These include, but are not limited to, spending more time or money than intended, chasing losses, neglecting responsibilities due to gambling, or gambling to escape negative feelings.

Other indicators can involve borrowing money to gamble, experiencing irritability or restlessness when unable to play, or continuing to gamble despite negative consequences in your personal or professional life.

Simple Self-Checks for Healthy Gaming

We recommend regularly reflecting on your gaming habits. Consider these simple questions to help maintain a balanced approach:

  • Do you set clear limits on the time and money you spend on gambling, and do you stick to them?
  • Do you view gambling as a form of entertainment, rather than a way to earn money or solve financial problems?
  • Do you feel you can stop playing when you reach your predetermined limits, or at any time you choose?
  • Are your gambling activities negatively impacting your work, relationships, or other important aspects of your life?
  • Do you often think about gambling when you are not playing, or feel a strong urge to play?
  • Do you ever feel the need to gamble more to get the same level of excitement or to win back money you have lost?

If you find yourself answering 'yes' to several of these questions, it may be beneficial to take a break from gambling and evaluate your habits further. We provide tools and resources to assist you in maintaining control.

Managing Your Play

We encourage all our players to be mindful of their gaming habits. If gambling ceases to be a form of entertainment, it is advisable to take a break.
