Responsible Gaming

At Boreal Lotto Center, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. While lottery participation can be enjoyable entertainment, it's important to play responsibly and within your means.

What is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means:

• Playing for entertainment, not to make money
• Only spending what you can afford to lose
• Never chasing losses
• Taking regular breaks
• Keeping gaming in balance with other life activities

Tools to Stay in Control

1. Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on how much you can deposit. You can adjust these limits in your account settings, with a 24-hour cooling-off period for increases.

2. Self-Exclusion

If you need a break, you can self-exclude for 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, or permanently. Contact [email protected] to request self-exclusion.

3. Reality Checks

Enable notifications to remind you how long you've been playing and how much you've spent.

4. Account History

Review your complete transaction history anytime to track your spending patterns.
