2o26Responsible Gaming at 2o26 — Fun, Safe and In Control

Online gaming is a form of entertainment — when enjoyed with the right mindset and within healthy limits. For some people, though, it can spiral out of control. 2o26's responsible gaming policy is designed to prevent exactly that.

2o26 believes responsible gaming isn't just about playing less — it's about playing smart. Knowing your budget, respecting time limits, and always putting your family's wellbeing ahead of gaming. That's the foundation of how we play responsibly.

We want every player to enjoy gaming — without it ever having a negative impact on their life. That's why 2o26 offers a range of tools, limit-setting features, and support services.

Everyone overspends time or money occasionally. But when it becomes a pattern, it's time to pay attention. Read through the signs below — if any of them feel familiar, our support team is always here for you.

• Spending beyond your budget: Using household funds for gaming.
• Chasing losses: Chasing losses by placing bigger and bigger bets.
• Losing track of time: Hours slipping by while gaming without even realising it.
• Keep it hidden from family members: Hiding or lying about gaming activity.
• Stress and anxiety: Feeling restless, irritable, or on edge when you can't play.
• Impact on work and studies: Failing to meet daily responsibilities because of gaming.
• Gambling with borrowed money: Taking out loans to gamble or fund your account.
• Repeated failed attempts to stop: You know there's a problem but you can't stop.

For responsible gaming at 2o26, we ask every player to follow the guidelines below. These aren't strict restrictions — they're simple ways to keep yourself protected.

• Set a budget in advance: Decide in advance how much you're willing to spend each week or month — and stick to that limit.
• Set time limits: Decide how long you'll play each day and use an alarm to keep track.
• Accept your losses: If you lose, treat it as the cost of entertainment — don't chase your losses by playing more.
• Put family first: Gaming should never come before your family, work, or health.
• Take a break: Take at least a 10-minute break every hour. Avoid long, uninterrupted sessions.
• Don't play under the influence or when stressed: It's hard to make good decisions when your mind isn't clear.
• Play for entertainment only: Don't treat gaming as a source of income — it's a form of entertainment.
• Keep other hobbies: Make sure there are plenty of other sources of joy in your life beyond gaming.

• Device password: Use strong passwords on your mobile, tablet, and computer.

• Talk openly: Have an open conversation with your child about the risks of online gaming.
