Responsible Gaming at Pingwin Casino
Curaçao License OGL/2024/995/0478 ∙ 18+
By publishing this Responsible Gaming Policy, we inform players about
potential financial risks and the danger of gambling addiction, and also
offer tools for its prevention.
1. Our Commitment
We support the international Responsible Gambling policy and do everything
to ensure that gaming remains entertainment.
Our tools help control time and money, and our support specialists help to
get assistance if needed.
2. Six "Smart" Tips for Control
-
Varied Leisure. Alternate gaming with other hobbies.
-
Plan Ahead.
-
Before the session, decide how much money and time you are willing to
spend.
- Do not spend more than you can afford to lose.
-
Understand the Odds.
- Be aware of the risk and mathematical expectation of each bet.
-
Track Your Enjoyment. If gaming ceases to be enjoyable —
take a break.
-
Set Loss/Bet Limits.
- Use built-in control tools.
3. How Games Work
| Fact |
What it means |
| House-edge |
"On average 3-5% for slots, 2.7% for European roulette, 4-8% margin in
sports betting."
|
| Randomness |
Outcomes are determined by a random number generator or unpredictable
sporting factors.
|
| Independent Rounds |
Each spin/draw is independent of the previous one and does not
"compensate" for losses.
|
4. Self-Assessment (PGSI-mini)
Answer "yes" or "no" to the questions:
- Have you ever spent more than you planned?
- Have you ever borrowed money to gamble?
-
Have there been arguments with loved ones because of
gambling?
-
Have you tried to reduce time/money spent on gambling,
but unsuccessfully?
- Do you gamble to escape problems or a bad mood?
If "yes" ≥ 2 – we recommend taking a break and seeking consultation.
5. Self-Control Tools
