Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At mygingiberi.co.za, we believe that online casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only – never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While casino games can be fun and exciting, the house always has a mathematical advantage. Please gamble only with money you can afford to lose, and never view gambling as an investment or income source.

Age Verification

Online gambling in South Africa is strictly for players aged 18 years and older. By accessing any casino on our affiliate network, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and meet all legal requirements in your jurisdiction. We take age verification seriously to protect minors from gambling harm.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:

• Constantly thinking about gambling or planning your next gaming session
• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
• Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gambling without success
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
• Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
• Gambling to escape problems, anxiety, depression, or stress
• Lying about the time or money spent gambling
• Neglecting work, school, or personal relationships due to gambling
• Borrowing money or going into debt to finance gambling
• Feeling irritable or anxious when unable to gamble
• Jeopardizing important relationships, education, or career opportunities

If any of these apply to you, help is available – please reach out to one of the support organizations listed below.

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features

Most reputable online casinos offer built-in tools to help you maintain control of your gaming. We encourage you to use these features:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit per day, week, or month. Once reached, no further deposits are accepted.
• Loss Limits: Establish a cap on losses to protect your bankroll and prevent chasing losses.
• Wagering Limits: Restrict the amount you can wager per session or bet.
• Reality Checks: Enable notifications at regular intervals during play to remind you how long you've been gambling and how much you've wagered.
• Session Timeouts: Set automatic logout times to prevent extended gaming sessions.
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing casino platforms. Self-exclusion is a powerful tool if you feel your gambling is becoming problematic.
• Account Closure: Request permanent closure of your account if you wish to stop gambling entirely.

Take advantage of these tools – they are designed specifically to protect your wellbeing.
