  • You borrow money, or use money meant for bills, to bet.
  • You hide your betting from people close to you.
  • You feel restless, anxious or irritable when you try to cut back.
  • You bet to escape stress, boredom or a bad mood.

  • Quiet hours

    No alerts between the hours you pick, every day, in your own time zone.

  • Daily and weekly caps

Taking a break? On your Account page, tap Cancel plan at the very bottom and pick I'm taking a break from betting. We may offer a one-month pause, and you can say no. If you cancel or pause, alerts stop that day unless you turn off Stop alerts now.

Limits at your betting site

Ontario-registered betting sites have their own tools, like deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion. Look in your account settings at the site, or ask its support team to set them up.
