RESPONSIBLE GAMING

Play responsibly

Playing at CrazyTime App should be something positive and entertaining, whilst also thrilling and fun. Sometimes it is hard to control how much we want to play in relation to how much we can afford to lose. In this section you’ll find ways to help make sure your gambling is within controllable limits, as well as show you places to turn to if you feel you might require help.

I think I might be playing too much

Below we have listed statements taken from a renowned psychological research paper. If you find that one or more of these statements are true for you, you might have a gambling problem and we recommend that you seek professional help and see how CrazyTime App can help you deal with this problem in sections 3 and 4 below. You’ve repeated unsuccessful efforts to control, cut back, or stop gambling. You’re restless or irritable when attempting to cut down or stop gambling. You gamble as a way of escaping from problems or of relieving a dysphoric mood. You often return another day after losing money gambling, to get even (“chasing” one’s losses). You lie to family members, therapist, or others to conceal the extent of involvement with gambling. You’ve committed illegal acts such as forgery, fraud, theft, or embezzlement to finance gambling. You’ve jeopardized or lost a significant relationship, job, or educational or career opportunity because of gambling. You rely on others to provide money to relieve a desperate financial situation caused by gambling.

The person is more worried than usual, more easily irritated and shows several signs of depression and anxiety.

It is not unusual that the person is becoming isolated from friends and relatives and avoids social activities.

Set your limits and play responsibly

If you are concerned that sometimes you may play for more than you plan, we can offer you some helpful limits to set before you start playing. When setting your limit it will go into effect right away and start taking into account your activity from the time you set it. For example, should you set a weekly limit on Wednesday, it will reset midnight to Monday and then continue to run from Monday to Sunday. It takes 24 hours to revoke or ease up a limit. But if you decide to make a limit tighter, then the change is instant. You can activate the limit that suits you the best via your Play Ok settings here.

This will limit the amount you can spend during a certain period. You will be able to make deposits up to the amount you have chosen and in addition to this, you can deposit an amount equal to any withdrawals made during this period. If you set a budget of €50 weekly and withdraw €100 that same week, you will be able to deposit a total of €150.

This will limit the amount you can deposit during a certain period. Once you have reached this sum you will not be able to make any new deposits until your limit is reset.

This will limit the total amount you can bet during a certain period. When you have reached this sum, you will not be able to place any new bets until your limit has reset.

This will limit the possible amount of net losses you can make based on bets minus wins during a certain period. When you have reached this sum, you will not be able to place any new bets until your limit is reset.

Limit how many hours you can be logged in to your account daily. Once you reach your limit, you will be automatically logged out and any gameplay is paused or completed in the background. ProTip: Make sure to always log out of your account when you finish your session.

Set a specific time block covering all days of the week during which you will not be able to log in to your account. The start- and end time of this limit will calculate according to the time zone you are in when activating it.

Sometimes you might need a break from playing and you can suspend your account for a period of your choice. If you want a cool off period you can go for a shorter break. If you are concerned that you have been playing too much we recommend that you instead self-exclude your account for a minimum period of 6 months. When gambling has become a problem for you, however, an indefinite exclusion from online gambling is the right choice for you. You can suspend your account via your Play Ok settings here.

You can take a break from CrazyTime App for up to 6 months. Once your break is over, your account will be automatically reopened. You will be able to make changes to the end date at a later time if you so choose. If you end it early, a 24 hour cool off period will apply before you can log in again. Speak with us in our chat if you need any advice. You will not receive any emails or texts from us during this time.

If you feel that you have been playing too much or are concerned that your gambling is becoming a problem, we recommend that you exclude your account for at least 6 months. You will not be able to return during this time and will not receive any emails or texts from us. Once your exclusion has expired your account will automatically reopen. Contact us in our live chat to let us know if you want to extend your exclusion. If gambling has become a problem for you, you should close your account indefinitely instead and seek professional help.
