Responsible Gambling at Melbet India
At Melbet India, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices to ensure that betting remains a fun and entertaining activity without causing harm. As a licensed online betting platform, we adhere to international standards and Indian regulations to foster a safe environment for our users. This policy outlines essential tools, guidelines, and resources to help you gamble responsibly.
Why Responsible Gambling Matters
Gambling should always be viewed as a form of entertainment, not a way to make money. Problem gambling can lead to financial, emotional, and health issues. By implementing responsible gambling measures, we aim to minimize risks and support our players in maintaining control.
Key Tools and Features for Safe Gambling
To enhance your safety, Melbet India provides the following features:
Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on how much you can deposit into your account. This helps you stick to a budget and avoid overspending.
Time Limits and Reality Checks: Configure session time limits to remind you of how long you've been playing. Reality checks pop up at intervals (e.g., every 30 minutes) to display your session duration, wins, and losses.
Self-Exclusion and Cooling-Off Periods: If you need a break, opt for temporary cooling-off periods (e.g., 24 hours to 7 days) or permanent self-exclusion. During self-exclusion, your account will be deactivated, and you won't receive marketing communications.
Loss Limits: Define maximum loss amounts to prevent chasing losses.
Age Verification: We strictly enforce age restrictions—users must be at least 18 years old. All accounts undergo verification to prevent underage gambling.
Signs of Problem Gambling
Be aware of these warning signs:
Spending more time or money on gambling than intended.
Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities due to betting.
Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling.
Feeling anxious, depressed, or irritable when not gambling.
Lying about gambling activities.
If you recognize these in yourself or a loved one, seek help immediately.
Tips for Responsible Gambling
Set a budget before starting and never exceed it.
Treat gambling as entertainment—only bet what you can afford to lose.
Avoid gambling when under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Take regular breaks and balance gambling with other activities.
Never chase losses; accept them as part of the game.
