Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Fun, Not a Financial Solution
At Avocado Estates, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming. Gambling should always be viewed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and set strict limits on both time and spending.
If you are under 18 years of age, or under the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, you must not use our services. Gambling is only for adults.
Age Verification
In Great Britain, you must be 18 years of age or older to gamble legally. We take age verification seriously and conduct checks to ensure all users meet this requirement. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to register or gamble on our platform.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be aware of these warning signs:
- Spending more money or time gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to try to win back money you've lost
- Hiding gambling activity from friends, family, or partners
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, anxiety, or low mood
- Borrowing money or using credit to gamble
- Neglecting work, studies, hobbies, or relationships due to gambling
- Feeling irritable or anxious when trying to reduce gambling
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools and Controls
We provide a range of tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose in a given period
- Reality Checks: Receive reminders during your gaming session about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account, preventing access to gambling for a period you choose
- Session Time Limits: Set maximum session durations to help manage your time
These tools are available in your account settings. We encourage you to use them proactively.
