Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Oxibet Casino, we believe that gambling should only be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While we strive to provide an enjoyable gaming experience, it's essential to understand the risks and play responsibly.
Set a budget you can afford to lose, treat any winnings as a bonus, and never gamble with money needed for essentials like rent, food, or bills.
Age Verification
Gambling is only legal for individuals who are 18 years of age or older in Canada. By using Oxibet Casino, you confirm that you meet this legal requirement in your province or territory. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognize any of these warning signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:
- Constantly thinking about gambling or planning the next session
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
- Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gambling without success
- Feeling restless or irritable when attempting to reduce gambling
- Chasing losses by returning to gamble more to recover money lost
- Lying to family, friends, or others about the extent of gambling
- Jeopardizing relationships, education, or job opportunities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling activities
- Neglecting personal hygiene, health, or financial responsibilities
- Using gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or other emotional problems
