Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At Agence Torq, we believe that gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Bitcoin casinos and all forms of gambling carry risk, and we're committed to promoting safe and responsible gaming practices for all our users in Canada and beyond.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognize any of these warning signs in yourself or someone you know, seek help immediately:

  • Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
  • Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
  • Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount spent
  • Neglecting family, work, school, or other responsibilities due to gambling
  • Gambling to escape problems, stress, anxiety, or depression
  • Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
  • Being unable to stop or reduce gambling despite wanting to
  • Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
  • Experiencing mood swings, irritability, or withdrawal symptoms when not gambling
  • Failed attempts to cut back or quit gambling

If you experience any of these signs, it is important to seek professional help.

Responsible Gaming Tools

Many licensed casinos offer built-in tools to help you maintain control over your gaming. These include:

Deposit Limits

Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period. Once reached, no further deposits are allowed.

Loss Limits

Establish a maximum amount you're willing to lose. Gaming will be restricted once this limit is reached.

Session Time Limits

Set automatic reminders or automatic logout after a specified period of play to encourage breaks.

Reality Checks

Receive periodic notifications during play displaying your session duration and money spent.

Self-Exclusion

Voluntarily exclude yourself from a casino for a set period (days, weeks, months, or years). During this time, you cannot access your account or place bets.

Account Closure

Permanently close your gaming account if you wish to stop gambling altogether.

We recommend using these tools proactively to maintain control over your gaming activity.
