Guidelines for Responsible Gambling at okgo
Betting and casino games are a form of entertainment. okgo wants every member to enjoy this entertainment within their own limits, keeping family and personal life as the priority. On this page you will learn how to set limits for yourself, recognise signs of a problem, and seek help when needed.
Why Responsible Gambling Matters
Betting and playing casino games is an enjoyable pastime for many people. But for some, it can gradually get out of control. okgo believes that creating a safe gambling environment is not only the members' responsibility — it is equally ours. That is why we provide a number of tools and services to help you monitor and manage your gambling habits.
First and foremost — the purpose of gambling is entertainment, not a way to earn money. Chasing losses by placing ever-larger bets is dangerous. If you set a clear budget before you play and stick to that limit, gambling can remain a healthy hobby.
Reading our Terms and Conditions will tell you how okgo keeps members' information and accounts secure, and how deep our commitment to responsible gambling runs. Age verification, self-limit setting, and account suspension are all integral parts of our service.
When registering at okgo, every member confirms that they are 21 years of age or older. Minors are not permitted to create an account. If anyone under 18 lives in your home, make sure your device is password-protected and it is wise not to share your login details with anyone.
Remember: Gambling is for entertainment. The amount you can lose should never exceed what you can afford. Before you play, ask yourself — if I lose this money, will it cause problems for my family or daily life? If the answer is yes, do not use that money for betting.
Self-Limits and Protection Tools
Every okgo member can manage the following protection settings directly from their account. Using them is not a weakness — it is a sign of staying in control.
Deposit Limit
Set the maximum amount you will deposit per day, week, or month in advance. Reducing the limit takes effect immediately; increasing it is subject to a waiting period.
Bet Limit
Set your own upper limit on how much you can wager within a given period. This helps keep any impulse to place sudden large bets in check.
Session Time Limit
Set a maximum duration for how long you play in one sitting. Once the set time is up, your account will automatically pause so you can give yourself a break.
Temporary Break
If you feel you need a rest, you can temporarily suspend your account for 24 hours, 72 hours, or 7 days. You will not be able to log in during this time.
Self-Exclusion
If you want to stop gambling altogether, you can activate self-exclusion for a set period or permanently. During this time you will not be able to open your account or create a new one.

Warning Signs
Problematic gambling habits usually develop gradually. If you notice any of the signs below in yourself or someone close to you, consider seeking help.
-
Feeling a repeated urge to place bigger and bigger bets to try to recover losses.
-
Spending more than the budget set aside for gambling and still being unable to stop.
-
Gambling taking more of your attention than family, friends, or work.
-
Hiding the truth or lying to family or loved ones about gambling.
-
Feeling restless, irritable, or low when not gambling.
-
Cutting into money meant for daily expenses, debt repayments, or family needs in order to gamble.
-
Thoughts about gambling interfering with sleep, eating, or daily activities.
Ask Yourself
Answer the following questions honestly:
- Have I ever felt regret after placing a bet?
- Do I gamble without my family knowing?
- Do I hide my losses?
- Do I keep playing by telling myself "I'll stop if I win this time"?
- Have I used household money for betting?
If one or more of your answers is yes, it is the right time to seek help.
Problematic gambling is a mental health issue — not a weakness. Acknowledging it and seeking help takes courage. You can find more detailed information on responsible gambling on our FAQ page.
