Responsible Gaming
As part of its contractual obligations to players, 1win does everything possible to ensure that their experience on the site is safe and free from the negative influence of gambling. The company has developed a responsible gaming policy that will explain to gamers the symptoms of addiction, provide advice on maintaining control, and suggest organizations to help.
Minor Policy
Only those who have reached the age of 18 can create a profile in 1win. This rule is established both by the company itself and by the legislation of most countries. If violators are identified, their profile is blocked, and all winnings are cancelled.
1win recommends that adults be a role model for children and closely monitor their online activity. Firstly, adults should not play on gambling websites in the presence of children. Secondly, they should keep their account login details in a safe place. Thirdly, they can install a special filter program that will hide inappropriate websites.
How to Recognize Addiction?
The insidiousness of gambling addiction is that it is not easy to detect. It all starts with small signs that most users do not pay attention to. However, 1win believes that if the player notices the initial symptoms, they can easily prevent the development of addiction. The company offers all users to answer the following questions from time to time to identify abnormal gambling habits:
- Do you spend all your free time in the casino?
- Do you increase the amount of your bet with each game?
- Have you tried to control your game and spending, but you did not succeed?
- Do you hide your passion for gambling from friends or relatives?
- Have you ever borrowed money for gambling?
- Do you feel irritated or angry if something prevents you from placing a bet?
- Have you begun to neglect work and social obligations?
Responsible Gaming Guidelines
For users to get the most out of playing 1win and remain responsible, they should follow these rules:
- Do not consider online gambling as a way to earn money. It is a form of entertainment and a way to gain new experience;
- Remember that all games are based on luck and chance. Do not use tricks and bots from the Internet that guarantee success;
- Prepare for the game and set a budget. Learn the rules of the game to understand what you will be dealing with. Also, allocate an amount for gambling that does not affect your main expenses;
- Never visit the site in a bad mood or under the influence of alcohol. This may affect the rationality of your decisions and lead to large expenses;
- Limit the time spent on the site. Set a limit on screen time on your device, and in your free time, find a hobby or spend more time with friends or family.
Self-Exclusion
One of the radical ways to combat addiction is to restrict access to gambling. 1win offers gamers to use self-exclusion, which is quickly activated through customer support. Users can choose the period during which access to the account and financial transactions will be limited.
During self-exclusion, nothing will bother the player. The company will not send advertising or other notifications. In addition, the user will not be able to remove the restriction ahead of time or create a second account. After the blocking is over, the player can submit a request to return to the game or delete the account forever.
Specialized Institutions
If a player wants to change their gambling habits or if they have an addiction, they can turn to specialized institutions. Many organizations help users free of charge and anonymously, provide consultations and therapy, and offer group meetings. The most reputable are:
- GamCare;
- Gambling Therapy;
- Gamblers Anonymous.
