Keep gambling controlled

  • Decide a loss limit and a time limit before you start.
  • Use only money left after essential expenses and savings.
  • Never borrow money or use credit to gamble.
  • Do not chase losses or increase stakes to recover money.
  • Avoid gambling when upset, under pressure or under the influence of alcohol.
  • Take regular breaks and keep other interests in your routine.

Warning signs

Step away and seek support if you hide gambling, miss payments, borrow to continue, repeatedly exceed limits, chase losses, or find that gambling is affecting sleep, work or relationships.

Self-exclusion and account controls

Ask the account platform for deposit limits, time-outs or self-exclusion options. For an account-specific restriction, contact the support details displayed inside the 7R Games platform. Do not open another account to bypass a limit.

South African legal position

The National Gambling Board states that interactive online casino gambling is prohibited in South Africa, except online betting offered through a locally licensed bookmaker. Before depositing, verify the operating entity and licence details shown by any platform against official provincial or national sources.
