Responsible Gaming at mBit
Understanding Our Responsible Gambling Tools
At mBit Casino, we prioritise the well-being of our players by providing a range of tools that foster safer gambling habits. Engaging in gambling is a recreational activity, and we believe it should remain a fun and responsible experience. Our suite of responsible gambling tools is designed to empower you, giving you the control over your gambling habits. These tools, including deposit, loss, and time limits, as well as reality checks and self-exclusion options, ensure that you maintain command over your gambling behaviour.
The utilization of these tools contributes to a healthy gambling experience, helping you manage your bankroll, monitor your gaming sessions, and make informed decisions. All our tools are customisable to suit your individual needs, giving you both flexibility and protection. It's part of our commitment to promoting an environment that recognises the importance of responsible gaming and actively helps you in maintaining your gambling activities within enjoyable limits.
Setting a Limit
Managing your gambling responsibly starts with setting personalised limits on your account. You have the ability to control how much money you spend, how much time you allocate for gambling, and how often you play. Here’s a step-by-step guide to setting your limits:
- Log into your mBit Casino account using your credentials.
- Navigate to the 'Account Settings' section from your dashboard.
- Click on the 'Limits' tab.
- Select the type of limit you wish to set: deposit limit, loss limit, or time limit.
- Choose and set your preferred threshold for daily, weekly, or monthly periods.
- Confirm your settings to ensure the limits are activated and enforceable.
By setting these limits, you ensure that your gambling remains a controlled and enjoyable activity, preventing it from impacting other areas of your life. The process is straightforward, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to focus on enjoying the games.
Self-Exclusion and How It Works
Self-exclusion is a powerful tool for when you need a break from gambling. Taking a break can help you regain perspective on your gaming habits. It enables you to lock your account for a specified period or permanently, depending on your needs. Here's how you can activate self-exclusion:
- Go to your account settings and select the 'Self-Exclusion' option.
- Choose your preferred duration: a short cooling-off period, a longer break, or a permanent exclusion.
- Submit the request, which once confirmed, restricts your access to the account for the chosen duration.
During self-exclusion, you will not be able to access your account, place bets, or deposit funds. This tool is particularly beneficial for players who feel the need to pause their betting activities, assisting them in taking control and redirect their focus to other priorities.

FAQ
How do I set a deposit limit on my mBit Casino account?
To set a deposit limit, sign in to your mBit Casino account and navigate to the 'Limits' section under account settings. From there, you can specify a deposit limit tailored to your daily, weekly, or monthly budget. Confirm your settings to apply the changes.
What happens if I activate self-exclusion?
By activating self-exclusion, access to your mBit Casino account is paused for the selected period. This blocks all gambling activities, giving you time away from betting. During this time, you’ll be unable to log in, deposit, or engage with games, ensuring a clear and committed break from gambling activities.
Can I change my loss limit at any time?
Loss limits can be adjusted through your account settings. While decreasing a limit can be immediate, increasing it typically requires a predefined waiting period to confirm the change, maintaining a safeguard against impulsive decisions.
How do reality checks work at mBit Casino?
mBit Casino's reality checks provide timely reminders about your playing duration at regular intervals. Activating these checks in the notification settings helps you track and assess your engagement time, promoting healthier playing patterns.
What should I do if a friend shows signs of problem gambling?
If you notice a friend displaying symptoms of problem gambling, approach the situation with empathy. Encourage them to seek help and suggest reaching out to professional support services, like Gambling Help Online, to gain support and guidance on addressing their gambling behaviour.
