Responsible gambling
Core approach
Gambling should be treated as a form of entertainment with a cost. If it stops being manageable — financially, emotionally, or socially — pause and seek support.
Casumo casino does not operate gambling services. If you choose to gamble through a third-party operator reached via outbound links, use that operator’s safer-gambling tools and verify the available options in your account area.
Practical safety rules
Budget and time controls
- Set a fixed spend limit before you start and treat it as non-negotiable.
- Separate gambling money from essential expenses (rent, food, bills).
- Set a time limit and use reminders/alarms.
Avoid high-risk behaviours
- Do not chase losses.
- Do not gamble when tired, distressed, or under the influence of alcohol/substances.
- Do not borrow money to gamble.
Common warning signs
Behavioural signals
- Spending more time/money than intended
- Hiding gambling activity
- Difficulty stopping once started
- Returning quickly after losses to “recover”
Financial and social signals
- Missed payments or borrowing to fund gambling
- Conflict with family/friends
- Work or study impact

If you need help
Immediate steps

Professional and peer support
Look for reputable support services available in your country/region (for example, national helplines, counselling services, or specialist charities). If you are in immediate danger or feel at risk of self-harm, contact local emergency services right away.
Responsible gambling FAQ
Some operators offer account-based exclusions that apply anywhere you log in. You can also consider device-level blocking tools, depending on your platform.
Rules vary by operator. Initiate withdrawals first if possible, then apply exclusion — unless continuing play is the primary risk, in which case prioritise safety.
They can be, because wagering requirements may encourage longer play. Review terms carefully and consider opting out of promotions if they undermine control.
