What is Responsible Gaming and why is it important
Responsible gaming means playing in a way that doesn't negatively affect your lifestyle, financial stability or mental health. At bbjee we're committed to creating a safe gaming environment where every player stays in control and gaming remains a healthy form of entertainment.
Gaming can be a thrilling experience but for some people it can become a problem if not properly managed. Responsible gaming means knowing your limits, budgeting your time and money, and being aware of problem signs. We provide you with various tools and resources so you can stay in control.
Remember: Gaming should be a form of entertainment, not a source of income. Always play only with money you can afford to lose and never gamble with borrowed money.
Time Control
Set daily or weekly session limits and reality check alerts that remind you how long you've been playing.
Budget Management
Set deposit limits, loss limits and wager limits so your spending always stays under control.
Take a break
Use the time-out or self-exclusion feature when you feel you need a break from gambling.
Bbjee's Responsible Gaming Tools
To keep your gaming experience under control, bbjee provides various effective tools you can easily access in your account settings. These tools are designed to help you maintain healthy gaming habits and prevent problems.
Deposit Limit
Set daily, weekly or monthly deposit limits. Once a limit is set, you cannot deposit more than that amount within the specified timeframe. If you wish to increase the limit, a 24-72 hour cooling-off period will apply.
Loss Limit
Determine the maximum amount of money you're prepared to lose in a specific period (day/week/month). When this limit is reached, your gaming session will automatically end and you won't be able to play until the specified period expires.
Session Time Limit
Set how long you want to play in a single session. When the session ends you'll receive a notification and your account will be temporarily locked. This helps you take breaks and avoid excessive play.
Reality Check
Get regular reminders of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent. You can set alerts every 15, 30 or 60 minutes that appear as pop-ups on your screen showing your session statistics.
Time-Out
Temporarily suspend your account for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days or 90 days. During the time-out period you will not be able to log in and will not receive any marketing communications. This is ideal when you feel you need a short break.
Self-Exclusion
Permanently close your account for a minimum of 6 months up to 1, 3 or 5 years. Self-exclusion is a serious step and once activated, you cannot cancel it before the specified period ends. We recommend using this option alongside professional counseling.
How to activate tools: Log into your bbjee account → Settings → Responsible Gaming → select and set your preferred tool. All changes take effect immediately and you'll receive an email confirmation.
Warning Signs of Problem Gaming
It's important to recognize problem gaming when it begins so you can seek help in time. Below are some common warning signs that may indicate gaming is becoming a problem. If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, please seek help.
Financial Warning
- Spending more money than you can afford or exceeding your budget
- Betting more to recover lost money (chasing losses)
- Difficulty paying bills or buying necessities because of gambling
- Taking loans or borrowing money to fund gambling
- Lying to family and friends about your gambling spending
Behavioural and Emotional Signs
- Constantly thinking about gambling even when you're not playing
- Neglecting family, work or other responsibilities to gamble
- Failed attempts to stop or reduce gambling
- Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when unable to gamble
- Neglecting sleep, food or hygiene to gamble
- Keeping gambling activities secret or hidden
Social and Relational Impact
- Increased tension or conflict in relationships with loved ones
- Withdrawal from social activities and prioritizing gaming
- Poor performance at work or in education
- Loss of hobbies and interests you once enjoyed
Get help immediately: If you experience five or more of the above signs, this is a clear indication of problem gaming. Please seek professional help and activate self-exclusion immediately. Remember, asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Self-Assessment: Is Your Gaming Under Control?
Ask yourself these simple questions and answer honestly. If most answers are 'yes', you may need help.
1. Have you played beyond your planned time or budget?
2. Is gaming negatively affecting your daily life, work or relationships?
3. Have you bet more to try to recover lost money?
4. Have you failed in attempts to stop or reduce gaming?
5. Have you borrowed money to fund gaming?
Interpreting results: If you selected the first option for three or more questions, your gaming behavior is concerning. Please seek professional advice and start using our responsible gaming tools. If the second option appears more often, stay cautious and monitor your gaming.
Advice for family
If someone in your family is struggling with a gambling problem, talk to them openly without judgement. Listen, show empathy and encourage them to seek professional help. You can help them set up self-exclusion on their account.
