Responsible Gaming at TonyBet
Gambling should remain a form of entertainment. TonyBet provides tools and information designed to help players manage how much time and money they spend while using casino and betting services.
If gambling begins to affect your finances, relationships, work or everyday routine, it may be time to stop and review your activity. Account limits, temporary breaks and self-exclusion are available for players who need additional control.
Tools for Managing Your Play
Several account controls are available to help you set boundaries before gambling becomes difficult to manage.
- Deposit limits to control how much money can be added to the account.
- Loss limits to restrict how much can be lost during a selected period.
- Time-Out for a temporary break from gambling.
- Self-exclusion for longer periods away from casino and betting activity.
Using these tools early can make it easier to keep gambling within a planned budget and schedule.
Setting Deposit and Loss Limits
A deposit limit controls how much money can be added to your account during a specific period. A loss limit sets a maximum amount that can be lost over the chosen timeframe.
Limits can normally be set for:
- one day;
- one week;
- one month.
A request to reduce an existing limit takes effect immediately. Increasing or removing a limit is subject to a 48-hour cooling-off period before the change can be completed.
Limits can be managed through the relevant section of the player account. If assistance is needed, the official TonyBet Live Chat or contact page can be used.
Taking a Short Break
A Time-Out is intended for players who want to stop gambling for a limited period without permanently closing their account.
While a Time-Out is active, casino games and betting are unavailable. The selected break cannot be cancelled before the chosen period has ended once it has been confirmed.
Any remaining account balance can still be withdrawn in accordance with the usual withdrawal and verification procedures.
At the end of the Time-Out period, account access should become available again automatically. Support can assist if access is not restored as expected.
Longer Breaks Through Self-Exclusion
Self-exclusion is available when a longer period away from gambling is needed. Depending on the applicable account rules, a player can request exclusion for a period ranging from six months to three years.
Once self-exclusion has been confirmed:
- gambling access is blocked for the selected period;
- new wagers cannot be placed;
- the selected period cannot be shortened;
- marketing and promotional communication is stopped where applicable.
Self-exclusion can be requested through the account limits area or with the assistance of the official TonyBet support team.
When the selected period ends, reopening the account may require an additional review. In some circumstances, further responsible gambling controls or financial limits may be applied before access is restored.
Players using services under the Estonian regulatory framework may also consider the national self-exclusion register:

When Gambling May Be Becoming a Problem
Problem gambling does not always begin with large financial losses. Changes in behaviour, mood or daily priorities can also be warning signs.
Consider your recent gambling activity and ask yourself:
- Have you spent more money or time gambling than you originally intended?
- Do you feel anxious, frustrated or regretful after gambling?
- Has gambling begun to interfere with work, family life or other responsibilities?
- Do you regularly increase your stakes to maintain the same level of excitement?
- Do you spend a lot of time thinking about gambling or trying to recover previous losses?
- Have gambling losses had a serious effect on your mood or wellbeing?
- Do you find it difficult to take a meaningful break from gambling?
- Have you borrowed money, sold possessions or hidden your gambling from other people?
If one or more of these situations feels familiar, consider stopping your gambling activity and using the available Time-Out or self-exclusion tools.

Practical Habits for Safer Gambling
A few simple rules can help keep gambling within reasonable boundaries.
- Decide on a spending limit before starting and do not exceed it.
- Set a time limit rather than playing for an open-ended period.
- Do not gamble with money needed for rent, bills, food or other essential expenses.
- Do not try to recover losses by increasing bets.
- Avoid gambling when angry, stressed or emotionally upset.
- Do not gamble while impaired by alcohol, drugs or other substances that may affect judgement.
- Take regular breaks away from the screen.
- Read the rules and conditions of the games or bets you use.
- Remember that gambling outcomes are uncertain and winnings cannot be guaranteed.
Support From the TonyBet Team
TonyBet staff receive guidance on identifying and responding to signs of gambling-related harm. Support representatives can provide information about account controls, Time-Out, self-exclusion and other responsible gaming options available to the account.
If you feel that your gambling is becoming difficult to manage, you do not need to continue playing before taking action. Use the available limits, take a break or request self-exclusion through the official support channels.
Keep Gambling in Perspective
Gambling should fit within your available leisure time and disposable budget. It should never be treated as a guaranteed way to earn money, solve financial problems or recover previous losses.
Review your activity regularly and be prepared to stop when gambling is no longer enjoyable. Responsible gaming starts with setting clear limits and being willing to use them.
