The Core Tools
Licensed Canadian-facing casinos must provide controls that put you in charge:
- Deposit limits — daily/weekly/monthly caps on what you can add.
- Loss & session limits — stop-loss and time-based session caps.
- Reality checks — periodic on-screen reminders of time and spend.
- Cool-off & self-exclusion — short breaks or longer mandatory exclusion.
Set Them First
Configure limits when you open an account, before playing — not after a losing session. Limits should be easy to lower and slow to raise.
