Our Commitment to Responsible Gambling

Vipzino Casino is dedicated to providing a secure and responsible gaming environment for all our players. We believe that gambling should remain a fun and entertaining experience, and we are committed to helping our players maintain control of their gaming habits.

As a licensed operator regulated by the UK Gambling Commission, we adhere to strict standards designed to protect vulnerable individuals and prevent gambling-related harm. We have implemented a range of measures and tools to promote responsible gambling and assist those who may develop problematic behaviors.

Remember: Gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money or escape from problems. Always gamble responsibly, set limits, and only play with money you can afford to lose.

Responsible Gambling Tools

We offer a variety of tools to help you maintain control over your gambling activities:

Deposit Limits

You can set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount you deposit into your account. This helps you manage your spending and stay within your budget.

To set deposit limits, go to your account settings and select "Responsible Gambling Tools" or contact our customer support team.

Reality Checks

Our reality check feature sends you notifications at regular intervals (every 30, 45, or 60 minutes) during your gaming sessions. These alerts display how long you've been playing and your net position, helping you stay aware of your time and spending.

Enable reality checks in your account settings under "Game Settings."

Session Time Limits

Set limits on how long you can play in a single session. Once the time limit is reached, you'll be logged out and won't be able to log back in until after a cooling-off period.

Configure session time limits in your account settings under "Responsible Gambling Tools."

Loss Limits

Establish limits on the amount you can lose within a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly). If you reach your limit, you won't be able to place any more bets until the period resets.

Set loss limits in your account settings under "Responsible Gambling Tools."

Wager Limits

Control the total amount you can wager within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly).

Configure wager limits in your account settings under "Responsible Gambling Tools."

Account Activity Statement

Access a detailed record of your account activity, including deposits, withdrawals, wagers, and results. This helps you track your gambling habits and maintain awareness of your spending.

View your account statement in the "Account History" section of your profile.

Taking a Break

If you feel you need to step back from gambling for a period, we offer several options:

Time-Out (Short Break)

Our time-out feature allows you to take a short break from gambling. During this period, you won't be able to access your account or place any bets. You can select a time-out period of:

  • 24 hours
  • 48 hours
  • 7 days
  • 1 month
  • 6 weeks

To set up a time-out, go to your account settings and select "Take a Break" under the "Responsible Gambling Tools" section.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a longer break or believe you may have a gambling problem, you can self-exclude from our platform. During the self-exclusion period, your account will be closed, and you will not be able to open a new account. Self-exclusion periods include:

  • 6 months
  • 1 year
  • 2 years
  • 5 years
  • Indefinite

To self-exclude, go to your account settings and select "Self-Exclusion" under the "Responsible Gambling Tools" section, or contact our customer support team.

Recognizing Problem Gambling

Gambling should be a fun and entertaining activity. However, for some people, gambling can become problematic. It's important to recognize the signs of problem gambling early so that appropriate action can be taken.

Self-Assessment Questions

Ask yourself the following questions to help determine if your gambling habits may be becoming a problem:

  • Do you gamble to escape problems or relieve feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, or depression?
  • Have you ever lied to family members, friends, or others about how much you gamble or how much money you've lost?
  • Have you made repeated unsuccessful attempts to control, cut back, or stop gambling?
  • Do you feel restless or irritable when trying to cut down or stop gambling?
  • After losing money gambling, do you often return another day to try to win back your losses?
  • Has gambling caused you any financial problems?
  • Has gambling jeopardized or damaged an important relationship, job, or educational opportunity?
  • Do you need to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the desired excitement?
  • Have you borrowed money or sold anything to finance gambling?
  • Have you ever gambled longer than you had planned?

If you answered "yes" to several of these questions, it may be an indication that you should reassess your gambling habits or seek professional help.

  • Spending more money and time on gambling than you can afford

Information for Friends and Family

If you're concerned about a friend or family member's gambling habits, here are some steps you can take to help:

How to Approach Someone About Their Gambling

  • Choose a good time and place to talk when both of you are calm and there are no distractions
  • Express your concerns in a non-judgmental way, focusing on behaviors you've observed
  • Listen to their perspective without interrupting or criticizing
  • Offer your support and encourage them to seek help
  • Provide information about support services available
  • Be patient, as it may take time for them to acknowledge there is a problem

Supporting Someone with a Gambling Problem

  • Learn about problem gambling to better understand what they're going through
  • Encourage them to use responsible gambling tools such as self-exclusion and deposit limits
  • Help them find professional support services
  • Consider attending support groups for families affected by problem gambling, such as GamAnon
  • Take steps to protect family finances if necessary
  • Take care of your own wellbeing and seek support for yourself if needed

Remember that ultimately, the person with the gambling problem must take responsibility for their behavior. Your role is to offer support, not to take control or solve the problem for them.
