Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At rcpm1stchoice.ca, we believe that casino gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Gambling always carries risk, and the house always has an edge. Play only with money you can afford to lose, and never gamble with funds needed for essentials like rent, food, or utilities.
Age Verification
By accessing Oxibet Casino through rcpm1stchoice.ca, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age or the legal age for gambling in your province of residence in Canada, whichever is higher. Gambling is not permitted for anyone under the legal age in their jurisdiction.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Consider seeking help if you experience any of the following:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Hiding your gambling activities from family or friends
- Lying about how much you gamble or how much you've lost
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Neglecting responsibilities at work, school, or home due to gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Experiencing anxiety or irritability when unable to gamble
- Failed attempts to reduce or control your gambling
- Experiencing financial difficulties due to gambling
If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, help is available.
Self-Help Tools
Most responsible online casinos offer tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Restrict the amount of money you're willing to lose during a session or period
- Reality Checks: Receive notifications at regular intervals reminding you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
- Time-Out/Break: Take a temporary break from gambling without closing your account permanently
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from an online casino for a set period or indefinitely
Please contact Oxibet Casino's customer support to access these tools on your account.
