At Teardown, we take responsible gambling very seriously. We know that gambling can be an entertaining and exciting experience, but we also understand the risks that can arise if gambling gets out of hand. That’s why we actively promote awareness of the importance of responsible gambling.
What is responsible gambling?
Responsible gambling is about being in control of your gambling and setting limits on time and money. It means gambling for entertainment, not to chase losses or to solve financial problems. We want to help you enjoy your gambling without it negatively affecting your life.
Recognize the signs of problem gambling
For some, gambling can develop into a problem. Here are some warning signs to watch out for:
- You spend more time and money on gambling than you planned.
- Gambling leads to financial problems or affects your work, studies or relationships.
- You feel the need to gamble more to achieve the same sense of excitement.
- You become restless or irritable when you are not gambling.
If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone close to you, it may be time to seek help.
Tools for responsible gambling
Many licensed online casinos offer tools to help you stay in control of your gambling:
- Deposit limits. Determine how much money you can deposit over a certain period of time.
- Loss limits. Set a limit on how much you are willing to lose.
- Self-exclusion. Suspend yourself from gambling for a shorter or longer period.
- Self-tests. Evaluate your gambling and gain insights into your gambling habits.
At Teardown, we encourage the use of these tools and recommend casinos that offer these features as part of their platforms.
Seek help and support
If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling problems, there is help available. Here are some organizations that offer support:
- The Helpline. A national support service for gamblers and their families. You can remain anonymous and it’s free to contact them.
- Gambling Break. A self-exclusion register that blocks players from all licensed gambling operators in Sweden.
- BeGambleAware and GamCare. International organizations that offer advice and assistance.
Creating a safe gambling environment
Responsible gambling is also about protecting children and young people from exposure to gambling. Using filtering systems, you can block access to certain gambling platforms and create a safe environment for everyone in your household.
Your safety is our priority
At Teardown.se we want to be part of the solution. By providing you with tools, knowledge and support, we aim to help our visitors enjoy gambling in a healthy way. Remember: it’s just a game, and it should always be entertainment – nothing else.
