Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Brize Fest, we believe that cryptocurrency casino gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Gambling always carries the risk of losing money, and you should only gamble with funds you can afford to lose.
Playing should be fun and exciting. If at any point gaming stops being enjoyable or begins to cause stress, we encourage you to take a break and seek support.
Age Verification
In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to access and use cryptocurrency casino services. We take age verification seriously and comply with all UK gambling regulations.
If you are under 18, please do not use our services. We encourage parents and guardians to discuss responsible gaming with young people in their care.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do you recognise any of these warning signs in your gaming habits? If so, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses: Trying to recover lost money by gambling more
- Hiding your gambling: Keeping gaming activity secret from friends or family
- Spending more than planned: Regularly gambling longer or with larger amounts than intended
- Gambling to escape problems: Using gaming to cope with stress, anxiety, or difficult emotions
- Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family commitments due to gambling
- Financial difficulties: Borrowing money or using savings to gamble
- Loss of control: Unable to stop or reduce gambling despite wanting to
- Relationship conflict: Arguments with loved ones about gambling behaviour
- Preoccupation: Constantly thinking about past gambling or planning the next session
- Tolerance increase: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
If you identify with several of these signs, please reach out for support immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Safer Gaming Features
Most reputable cryptocurrency casinos offer tools to help you maintain control. These include:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a cap on losses you're willing to accept during a gaming session
- Session Time Limits: Receive reminders or automatic logouts after a set period of play
- Reality Checks: Pop-up notifications during play to help you stay aware of time and money spent
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily restrict your own access to gaming platforms for a defined period
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gambling entirely
We strongly encourage you to use these tools if you feel your gaming may be becoming problematic.
