8 Tips for Safe Gambling

• Set a fixed monthly budget for the SpinMatch app and never exceed it, even after a loss.
• Treat gambling as entertainment — not a way to earn income or clear debts.
• Set time limits for every Aviator or live-casino session and respect them strictly.
• Never chase losses; walk away from the app when your budget is gone.
• Do not gamble under the influence of alcohol or drugs — judgement is impaired.
• Keep gambling money separate from rent, school fees, bills and savings.
• Take regular breaks — step away from the phone for at least 30 minutes every session.
• Talk openly with family and friends if your play worries you or them.

8 Signs of Gambling Addiction

• Playing Aviator or slots for longer than you planned on most sessions.
• Thinking about gambling even when doing other activities at work or home.
• Borrowing money or using credit cards to fund your play.
• Lying to family or friends about the time and money you spend on gambling.
• Trying repeatedly to stop or cut down without success.
• Feeling restless or irritable when not gambling.
• Gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety or negative feelings.
• Financial trouble, missed work or damaged relationships due to play.
