Responsible Gambling

At 4Rabet, we take safe and responsible gaming seriously. Most users engage with betting and casino games as a form of entertainment. However, some users tend to develop an addictive behavior toward betting. We strive to equip you with the right information and tools to control and protect your gaming habits. 

We offer: 

  • Deposit Limits. Set daily, weekly, or monthly spending limits; 
  • Time Control. Monitor your gaming time to prevent prolonged sessions; 
  • Self-Exclusion Options. Step away temporarily or permanently; 
  • Real-Time Alerts. Alerts for loss and gaming escalation; 
  • Supportive Messaging. Reminders and resources around safe and responsible gambling. 

Indicators of Problem Gambling

  • Chasing losses by gambling more frequently or increasing the amount wagered; 
  • Neglecting social and work commitments and responsibilities, or financial obligations due to gambling; 
  • Tricking people into believing that one is borrowing money with no intention of paying it back or while significantly underreporting it;
