Know the Signs

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If any of these apply to you or someone you know, please reach out for help.

💸
Spending Beyond Budget
Spending more money or time gambling than you originally intended, or consistently going over a budget you set for yourself.
🔃
Chasing Losses
Betting more money to try to recover previous losses — one of the clearest signs that gambling is no longer recreational.
💰
Borrowing to Gamble
Taking loans, using credit cards, or borrowing from family and friends specifically to fund gambling activity.
👪
Neglecting Responsibilities
Missing work, neglecting family obligations, or withdrawing from social activities because of time spent gambling.
😟
Anxiety When Not Gambling
Feeling restless, irritable, anxious, or depressed when unable to gamble — a sign of psychological dependence.
🤔
Hiding Gambling Activity
Lying to friends, family, or colleagues about how much time or money you spend gambling, or hiding evidence of losses.
Stay in Control

Tools Available to You

📅

Deposit Limits

All reputable online casinos allow you to set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. These can be set lower at any time but usually require a cooling-off period before they can be raised — which protects you in high-emotion moments.

Where to find it: Account Settings → Responsible Gambling → Deposit Limits in your casino dashboard.

🚫

Self-Exclusion

You can voluntarily exclude yourself from an individual casino by contacting their support team — reputable casinos will process this within 24 hours. For a Singapore-wide exclusion from physical casinos (Marina Bay Sands, Resorts World Sentosa), visit the NCPG website.

⏱

Session Time Limits & Reality Checks

Many casinos offer session time reminders that appear on screen after you have been playing for a set duration. Enable these to keep track of how long you have been gambling. Live casino in particular can make time pass very quickly — a baccarat session that feels like 20 minutes can easily be two hours.

🚬

Cooling-Off & Take a Break

Most licensed casinos allow you to take a temporary break of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days — during which you cannot log in or make deposits. This is useful if you recognise that you are in a negative emotional state and want to remove the temptation before it becomes a bigger problem.
