Our Commitment to Safer Gambling
DAZN Bet is dedicated to providing a safe and enjoyable online betting experience. We understand that for most people, gambling is a form of entertainment. However, we also recognise that for a small percentage, it can become a problem. Our Responsible Gambling policy outlines the measures we have in place to protect our players, promote responsible behaviour, and provide support for those who may be experiencing difficulties.
We operate under strict regulatory guidelines set by our licensing authority. This commitment extends to ensuring the integrity of our games, protecting player funds, and actively promoting responsible gambling practices across all aspects of DAZN Bet. We continuously review and update our tools and policies to reflect best practices in player protection.
Recognising the Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of their background or financial situation. It is important to be aware of the signs, both in yourself and in others. Recognising these signs early can be crucial in seeking help.
- Spending more money or time gambling than you can afford or intended.
- Feeling a need to be secretive about your gambling activities.
- Chasing losses, trying to win back money you have lost.
- Gambling affecting your relationships, work, or studies.
- Feeling anxious, guilty, or irritable when you are not gambling.
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble.
- Repeatedly trying to cut down or stop gambling without success.
If you identify with any of these signs, or are concerned about someone else, please consider taking action. Help and support are available.
Keeping Gambling Fun and Under Control
Maintaining control over your gambling is key to keeping it an enjoyable activity. DAZN Bet encourages all players to adopt responsible gambling habits. Here are some practical tips:
- Gamble for entertainment, not as a way to make money. View gambling as a leisure activity with a cost, similar to going to the cinema or a concert.
- Set clear financial limits before you start. Decide how much you can afford to lose and stick to it. Never gamble with money you need for essential expenses.
- Set time limits. Decide how long you will gamble for and ensure you stop when that time is up.
- Never chase losses. Accept that losing is part of gambling and do not try to win back what you have lost by betting more.
- Do not gamble when you are feeling stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These states can impair your judgement.
- Balance gambling with other activities. Ensure gambling does not become your sole form of entertainment.
Setting Deposit, Loss and Wager Limits
DAZN Bet provides tools to help you manage your gambling expenditure effectively. You can set various limits on your account to ensure you stay within your comfort zone.
- Deposit Limits: You can set a maximum amount of money you can deposit into your DAZN Bet account over a specific period (daily, weekly, or monthly). Once this limit is reached, you will be unable to deposit further funds until the period resets.
- Loss Limits: This allows you to set a maximum amount of money you are willing to lose over a set period. If your net losses (total stakes minus total winnings) reach this limit, you will be prevented from placing further bets until the period resets.
- Wager Limits: You can set a maximum amount you are willing to wager over a specific period. This helps control the total amount of money you stake, regardless of wins or losses.
These limits can be set and adjusted through your account settings. Any increase to a limit will typically take effect after a cooling-off period to allow for careful consideration, as required by our licensing authority. Decreases to limits usually take effect immediately.
Time-Outs and Cool-Off Periods
If you feel you need a short break from gambling, DAZN Bet offers Time-Out functionality. This allows you to temporarily suspend your account for a defined period, typically ranging from 24 hours to six weeks. During a Time-Out, you will not be able to log in, deposit, or place bets. This is an effective way to take a short breather and regain perspective.
A cool-off period is often applied when you request to increase certain limits, giving you time to reconsider your decision before it takes effect. This ensures that any changes to your responsible gambling settings are made thoughtfully.
Self-Exclusion Options
For those who feel they need a longer break or wish to stop gambling entirely, DAZN Bet offers a comprehensive Self-Exclusion programme. Self-Exclusion allows you to close your account for a minimum period of six months, or longer if you choose.
During a self-exclusion period:
- You will be prevented from accessing your DAZN Bet account.
- We will take all reasonable steps to prevent you from opening new accounts with us.
- You will be removed from all marketing communications.
If you decide to self-exclude, we strongly recommend that you also consider self-excluding from any other gambling operators you may use. Reinstatement of an account after self-exclusion is not automatic and requires a formal request from the player, followed by a review process and a further cooling-off period.
Protecting Minors
DAZN Bet is strictly for individuals aged 18 and over. It is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to open an account or gamble with us. We employ robust age verification procedures to prevent underage gambling. This includes requesting proof of age and identity from customers. Accounts found to be held by minors will be immediately closed, and any winnings forfeited.
We urge parents and guardians to take steps to prevent minors from accessing gambling sites. This includes using filtering software, supervising internet usage, and keeping account details secure. Protecting children is a shared responsibility.
Reality Checks and Session Reminders
To help you monitor the amount of time you spend gambling, DAZN Bet offers Reality Check functionality. This feature provides periodic pop-up reminders during your betting sessions, informing you of the elapsed time since you started playing. You can set the frequency of these reminders to suit your preferences.
These session reminders prompt you to consider whether you wish to continue playing or take a break. They are designed to help you maintain awareness of your gambling duration and encourage responsible play.
Taking a Self-Assessment
If you are unsure whether your gambling habits are becoming problematic, a self-assessment can provide valuable insight. Many organisations offer confidential questionnaires designed to help you evaluate your behaviour. These assessments typically ask a series of questions about your gambling patterns, feelings, and the impact on your life.
Completing a self-assessment can help you understand if you are at risk and guide you towards appropriate support if needed. This is a private and anonymous way to reflect on your gambling habits without obligation.
