Responsible Gambling

Melbet does not allow minors to gamble. We verify each player’s age and identity and may request additional documents if needed. Our goal is to provide a safe, transparent, and responsible gaming environment for all users.

To enjoy gambling without negative consequences, it’s important to follow a few simple rules. These tips are designed to help you stay in control, avoid emotional decisions, and treat gambling purely as a form of entertainment:

1. Gamble only for fun – never as a way to make money or escape stress, loneliness, or frustration.
2. Treat any money lost as the cost of entertainment, and any win as a bonus, not a goal.
3. Set a financial limit in advance and never exceed it.
4. Decide how much time you’ll spend gambling and stick to that timeframe.
5. Don’t chase your losses – this usually leads to bigger losses.
6. Expect to lose – managing expectations helps avoid frustration and compulsive play.
7. Keep a balanced life – gambling should never replace relationships, work, or hobbies.
8. Don’t believe in gambling myths – luck doesn’t “turn around” just because you keep playing.
9. Never borrow money to gamble.
10. Don’t gamble to deal with emotional or physical pain – use healthy coping strategies instead.

Gambling addiction is diagnosed when a person shows at least four of the following signs within a 12-month period: a persistent urge to gamble, needing to bet more for excitement, irritability when trying to stop, failed attempts to cut back, constant thoughts about gambling, feelings of guilt or depression, chasing losses, lying to hide gambling, damage to relationships or work, and relying on others for money due to losses.

Melbet encourages users to regularly reflect on their gambling habits by asking themselves simple questions:

• Are you struggling to manage your betting budget?
• Do you borrow money to place bets?
• Have you had conflicts with family or friends over gambling expenses?
• Are your deposit limits steadily increasing?
• Are you losing interest in hobbies or daily activities?
• Do you hide the amount of time or money spent on betting?
• Do gambling losses make you feel depressed?

If you answered “yes” to most of these questions, it may be time to stop or switch to safer gambling.
There are international services like Gambling Therapy and Be GambleAware, as well as local organizations that provide assistance.

Self-exclusion is often the most effective way to stop gambling. Start by withdrawing funds and blocking access to betting sites on your devices. Having someone monitor your spending can also help. If full exclusion feels too extreme, set a monthly budget and limit your playtime. This helps you stay in control and avoid impulsive decisions.
