Responsible Gambling at Spinbet
At Spinbet, we are committed to providing a safe, fair, and enjoyable gaming environment for all our players in New Zealand. We believe that gambling should always be a form of entertainment, never a way to make money or escape personal problems. This page outlines our responsible gambling policies, the tools available to help you stay in control, and where to find support if you need it.
Our Commitment to Responsible Gambling
Spinbet takes responsible gambling seriously. We comply with all applicable regulations governing online gambling in New Zealand and continuously work to implement best practices to protect our players. Our team is trained to identify signs of problem gambling and to respond with care and professionalism.
Know the Signs of Problem Gambling
Gambling becomes a problem when it negatively affects your finances, relationships, work, or mental health. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you spend more money or time gambling than you intended?
- Do you gamble to escape stress, anxiety, or depression?
- Have you lied to family or friends about your gambling habits?
- Do you chase losses by continuing to gamble after losing money?
- Have you borrowed money or sold possessions to fund gambling?
- Do you feel restless or irritable when trying to cut down on gambling?
- Has gambling caused problems in your relationships or at work?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, we strongly encourage you to use the tools available on our platform and to seek professional support.
Responsible Gambling Tools
Spinbet provides a range of tools to help you manage your gambling activity. You can access all of these tools through your account settings or by contacting our support team.
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much money you add to your account. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 24-hour cooling-off period before it becomes active.
Loss Limits
Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose over a defined period. This helps you stay within your budget and prevents chasing losses.
Session Time Limits
Set a maximum duration for your gaming sessions. Once your session limit is reached, you will be automatically logged out of your account.
Reality Checks
Enable periodic reminders that appear during your gaming session to inform you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent or won.
Cool-Off Period
If you feel you need a short break from gambling, you can activate a cool-off period of 24 hours, 48 hours, or up to 30 days. During this time, you will not be able to log in or place bets.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel that you need a longer break, you can self-exclude from Spinbet for a period of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanently. During self-exclusion, your account will be suspended and you will not receive any promotional communications from us. To request self-exclusion, please contact our support team at [email protected] or use the self-exclusion option in your account settings.
Please note that self-exclusion is a serious measure. If you choose permanent self-exclusion, your account cannot be reopened. We strongly recommend self-exclusion if you believe your gambling is out of control.
Account Closure
You may close your account at any time by contacting our support team. If you close your account for responsible gambling reasons, we will treat it as a self-exclusion and apply the same protections.
Protecting Minors
Spinbet strictly prohibits gambling by anyone under the age of 18. We verify the age and identity of all players during the registration process. If we suspect that a minor is attempting to use our platform, we will immediately suspend the account pending investigation.
If you share a device with minors, we strongly recommend using parental control software to prevent access to gambling websites. The following tools can help:
