Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Stake Canada, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While gaming can be fun and exciting, it's important to approach it responsibly and within your means.

Please remember: the house always has a mathematical edge. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never view gaming as an investment or income source.

Age Verification

Gaming is only for adults. In Canada, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age of majority in your province) to participate in online gaming activities.

We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under the legal age in your jurisdiction, please do not create an account or attempt to play.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognize any of these warning signs in your behaviour, it may be time to seek help:

Chasing Losses: Trying to win back money you've lost by gambling more
Hiding Gambling Activity: Keeping your gaming secret from family, friends, or partners
Loss of Control: Being unable to stop or limit the amount you gamble
Neglecting Responsibilities: Putting gaming before work, school, family, or personal obligations
Gambling with Borrowed Money: Using loans, credit cards, or borrowed funds to gamble
Mood Changes: Experiencing irritability, anxiety, or depression related to gaming
Escalating Bets: Needing to bet larger amounts to achieve the same level of excitement
Withdrawal Symptoms: Feeling anxious, restless, or irritable when not gambling
Failed Attempts to Quit: Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or stop gaming
Financial Problems: Struggling with bills, debts, or financial difficulties due to gaming
