Responsible Gaming Guide

What responsible play means to Gruptop

Wagering should be a strategic pastime, not a financial plan. Responsible gaming is about knowing when to step back, keeping betting funds separate from essential budgets and recognising that losses are part of the experience.

Red flags to watch

Check in with yourself regularly. Seek support if you notice any of the following patterns:

• Chasing losses or doubling stakes to “make it back”.
• Letting betting sessions disrupt sleep, work or family life.
• Hiding wagers, bank statements or new debt from close ones.
• Borrowing money, selling belongings or using credit to fund bets.
• Relying on betting to manage stress, anxiety or boredom.

Control tools offered by licensed operators

Deposit caps

Set daily, weekly or monthly deposit ceilings. Once the limit is hit, the operator will block further top-ups until the timer resets.

Session reminders

Reality-check popups nudge you to pause, summarising time spent, profit/loss and current balance.

Timeouts and self-exclusion

Choose a short cool-off window (24 hours to 30 days) or request a longer exclusion via ANJ that applies to every regulated platform.

Build a personal playbook

• Ring-fence a monthly leisure budget and lock in maximum stake sizes.
• Schedule sessions like workouts—start with an end time and stick to it.
• Avoid betting when drinking, exhausted or emotionally charged.
• Track results in a spreadsheet; transparency keeps expectations realistic.
