Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

At b2ccontact.ca, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Casino games are designed with a house edge, meaning that over time, the casino will always have a mathematical advantage. Play only with money you can afford to lose, and never gamble to chase losses or meet financial needs.

Age Verification

Online gambling in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the applicable legal age in your province). If you are under the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, you must not participate in any gambling activities on this site or any other platform. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a problem with gambling:

• Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
• Constantly thinking about gambling or planning the next gambling session
• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
• Attempting to cut back or stop gambling but being unable to do so
• Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when trying to reduce or stop gambling
• Chasing losses by returning to gamble more to recover money lost
• Lying to family, friends, or others about the extent of gambling activities
• Jeopardizing important relationships, education, or career opportunities due to gambling
• Relying on others to bail you out of financial difficulties caused by gambling
• Using gambling as a way to escape problems or relieve stress, anxiety, or sadness

If any of these warning signs apply to you, please seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Features

Most responsible online casinos, including those we recommend, offer a variety of self-help tools to promote responsible gaming:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount of money you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Establish a maximum amount you're willing to lose before you must stop playing
• Session Time Limits: Set automatic reminders or session cutoffs to prevent extended play
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic notifications about how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling on the platform for a defined period
• Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you decide to stop gambling

We encourage you to use these tools proactively. Most responsible gambling platforms allow you to set these limits through your account settings before you begin playing.
