Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Go Tech AG, we believe that sports betting should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While sports betting can be exciting and fun, it's important to approach it responsibly and within your means.
Remember: the house always has an edge. Never bet more than you can afford to lose, and always gamble for enjoyment only.
Age Verification
Sports betting in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age in your province, whichever is higher). We strictly enforce age verification on our platform.
If you are under the legal age to gamble in your jurisdiction, please do not participate in any betting activities. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor and discuss responsible gaming with young people in their care.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do you recognize any of these warning signs in yourself or someone you know?
- Chasing losses by betting more money to recover what you've lost
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or loved ones
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce or stop gambling
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Neglecting work, school, family, or other important responsibilities due to gambling
- Experiencing financial difficulties caused by gambling
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Failed attempts to control, reduce, or stop gambling
If you experience any of these signs, it may be time to seek help and implement self-help tools.
Self-Help Tools & Controls
We provide several tools to help you maintain control over your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Establish a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a set timeframe
- Betting Limits: Restrict the maximum bet size per wager
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders about how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
- Session Limits: Set automatic session timeouts to limit continuous gambling
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account to take a break from gambling
We encourage all players to use these tools proactively. Contact our customer support team to activate any of these responsible gaming features on your account.
