Our Responsible Gaming Commitment

Budget Control

Never bet more than you can afford to lose. Use our deposit limit feature to set a monthly budget and stick to it.

Set a Time Limit

Decide in advance how long you'll play each day. Our session timer will remind you when it's time to stop.

Self-Exclusion

You can temporarily or permanently close your account at any time. This is our most important self-protection tool.

Loss Limit

Once you reach a set loss amount, betting will automatically stop. Set this limit ahead of time.

Ad Block

You can opt out of our promotional messages and bonus offers at any time. The choice is entirely yours.

Help & Support

If you notice signs of betting addiction, our trained support team is always ready to point you in the right direction.

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming isn't just about betting less. It's a mindset — one where you treat betting as entertainment, not an obsession. At StarSports, it means making informed decisions that account for your financial situation, your time, and your mental wellbeing.

Betting and online gaming are legitimate forms of entertainment. But like any entertainment, they come with limits. Staying within those limits is what responsible gaming is all about. On this page, StarSports will help you understand and respect those limits.

Keep in mind: Bet for entertainment, not as a source of income. There's always a chance of losing — so only wager what you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life.

StarSports is committed to the happiness and safety of every user. That's why we don't just talk about responsible gaming — we provide real tools and support to back it up.

Practical Tips for Playing Safely

Build a few simple but important habits for responsible gaming:

1
Set Your Budget in Advance

Set a monthly betting budget at the start of each month. Once that budget is gone, stop playing for the rest of the month. Never dip into other funds to top it up.

2
Don't Chase Your Losses

Don't chase losses with a "I'll win it back" mindset — it's the most dangerous habit. If you lose, stop, and take a moment to clear your head.

3
Don't play when you're drunk or under mental stress.

Playing while drunk, angry, or frustrated increases the chance of poor decisions. Always play with a clear head.

4
Take Regular Breaks

Don't play for long stretches at a time. Take a break every hour and give your mind and body a rest.

5
Spend Time with Family & Friends

Don't let betting interfere with your social life. Spending quality time with family and friends matters.

6
Keep Wins in Perspective

Don't get carried away by a win and raise your stakes. Withdraw a portion of your winnings and stick to your set budget.

Never bet with borrowed money or your family's savings. It leads to financial hardship and family conflict.

Signs of Problem Gaming

If you notice any of the following signs in yourself, it's time to pay attention:

  • Taking loans or secretly taking money from family to fund betting.
  • Spending money meant for bills, rent, or food on betting.
  • Placing bigger bets to try to win back money you've lost.
  • Depleting your savings entirely due to betting.

  • Feeling restless or irritable when not betting.
  • Lying to family and friends about your gambling.
  • Prioritizing betting over work, studies, or family.
  • Wanting to stop gambling but being unable to.

  • Relationships with family and friends are suffering.
  • Skipping social events just to keep playing.
  • Losing focus and concentration at work.
  • Feeling uncomfortable talking to anyone about your betting.

  • Sleep problems — staying up late to play.
  • Irregular eating and sleeping habits.
  • Headaches or excessive fatigue.
  • Neglecting your health and wellbeing.

If any of the above signs apply to you, please take action now. Contact us or use the self-exclusion option.

Check Yourself — Are You Playing Safely?

Take the short self-assessment below and answer honestly:

1. Did you bet beyond your budget last month?
2. Do you place more bets to try to win back what you've lost?
3. Do you feel restless or irritable when you're not betting?
4. Are you hiding your betting activity from your family?
You're in a safe place right now — but stay alert and check in with yourself regularly.
Some warning signs have been detected in your playing behaviour. Please reach out to our support team or consider taking a short break.

Protection of Minors

  • Keep Your Password Private: Do not share your StarSports account password with younger members of your household.
  • Log out: Always log out of your account when you're done playing.

Our Commitment: If a minor's account is detected, we will close it immediately, erase all associated data, and return any deposited funds.
