Know the Signs

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of age, income, or background. Recognising the warning signs early is the most important step toward getting help. If you identify with any of the following, please reach out to a support service immediately.

  • Spending more money or time gambling than you intended

  • Chasing losses by continuing to gamble after losing

  • Gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions

  • Hiding gambling activity from family or friends

  • Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities because of gambling

  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling

  • Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund gambling

  • Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling

Stay in Control

Tools Available in Your Account

Every Leon Casino account includes a full suite of responsible gambling tools accessible directly from your account settings.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly or monthly deposit caps so you never spend more than you're comfortable with. Limits take effect immediately and can only be lowered instantly — increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period.

Loss Limits

Define the maximum amount you're willing to lose in a given period. Once your limit is reached, no further bets can be placed until the limit period resets.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session duration. When your time is up, you'll receive a notification and be prompted to take a break. Reality checks remind you how long you've been playing.

Self-Exclusion

Choose to exclude yourself from Leon Casino for a set period — 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanently. During exclusion, your account is suspended and you cannot create a new one.

Cooling-Off Periods

Take a break of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Your account is temporarily suspended during this time, giving you space to reflect without permanent commitment.

Account History

Access full transparency into your gambling activity — deposits, withdrawals, game history, and time spent. Understanding your patterns is the first step to responsible play.
