Responsible Gaming

At eClubEdmonton.com, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting the well-being of our players.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your province) to use our services. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under the legal age in your jurisdiction, please do not gamble on our platform.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:

• Chasing losses by gambling with more money to recover what you've lost
• Gambling with money intended for essential expenses (rent, food, utilities)
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount of time or money spent
• Neglecting family, work, school, or social responsibilities due to gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce gambling
• Repeatedly failing at attempts to cut back or stop gambling
• Borrowing money to gamble or pay off gambling debts
• Experiencing mood swings or using gambling to escape problems or difficult emotions
• Jeopardizing relationships, education, or career opportunities due to gambling

Self-Help Tools

We provide several tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:

• Deposit Limits: Set maximum amounts you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a gaming session
• Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account, preventing access to all gambling activities
• Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gambling entirely

To access these tools, please contact our customer support team or visit your account settings.
