Responsible Gaming at Melbet

Responsible gaming means taking a conscious approach to gambling. Games are seen as a form of relaxation and entertainment, not as a source of stable income. Each result is determined by chance, so winning cannot be considered guaranteed.

Melbet supports players in their desire to control their behaviour and offers features that help keep the process within reasonable limits. The main condition is to observe personal limits in terms of time and budget, which makes the game safe and fair.

• Gambling addiction develops gradually, and its signs may not be noticeable in the early stages. However, there are warning signs to look out for:
  Constant thoughts about gambling and a desire to spend more time gambling;
• Lack of control over time and an increase in the duration of gambling sessions;
• Secrecy and attempts to hide your actions from family and friends;
• Using borrowed funds to replenish your account and gambling with credit money;
• Decreased interest in work, study and other important areas of life;
• Irritability, anxiety and stress when unable to gamble;
• The desire to immediately win back losses after losing.

If you recognise even a few of these signs, it is important to take action in time and seek help.

You can maintain balance in the game by following simple and effective rules. They allow you to keep a clear head and prevent you from losing control:

• Set limits on deposits, bets and playing time in advance;
• Take breaks to avoid fatigue and emotional decisions;
• Do not use gambling to solve financial or personal problems;
• Avoid playing when tired, stressed or under the influence of alcohol or drugs;
• Never borrow money to participate in betting or casinos;
• Accept losing as a natural part of the gaming process.

To help you stay in control, Melbet provides players with several useful tools. They help you stay within your limits and always remember the restrictions you have set:

• Deposit and betting limits allow you to determine in advance the amount you can spend without risk;
• Time limits regulate the duration of gaming sessions and help you avoid spending unnecessary hours;
• Time reminders are displayed directly during the game and suggest taking a break;
• Activity history is available in your personal account and allows you to analyse your behaviour;
• Temporary account blocking allows you to take a break if you need a rest;
• Self-exclusion completely closes access to betting and games for a selected period.

Melbet strictly controls the participation of only adult users. To confirm age, documents are checked during registration and withdrawal of funds.
We recommend that parents use parental control programmes and do not store account login details in public access. This helps to eliminate the risk of underage gambling.

If you or your loved ones are experiencing problems related to gambling, please contact the following independent organisations:

• Gambling Therapy (www.gamblingtherapy.org);
• GamCare (www.gamcare.org.uk);
• BeGambleAware (www.begambleaware.org).

These services provide counselling, addiction tests and support programmes. In addition, Melbet’s support specialists are ready to help you set limits and provide contact details for professional centres.

If your loved one is showing signs of addiction, it is very important to support them and offer help. To do this, follow these simple steps:

• Discuss the problem calmly and without accusations;
• Offer help in contacting specialists and support organisations;
• Help set limits and restrict access to the gaming account;
• Maintain trust and do not increase stress with additional pressure;
• Support positive changes and note signs of progress.
• If the problem is very serious, it is better to contact organisations that help people with gambling addiction yourself. They will study the problem and help find a quality approach to solving it.
