Responsible Gaming
Responsible gaming means staying in control while you play. On 1win, you can set limits, take breaks, and use tools that help you manage risk. Gambling always involves chance, so only bet what you can afford to lose. Our policy focuses on your safety, privacy, and fair play. If you need support in India, help is available.
Basic Principles of Responsible Gaming
Gambling always carries the risk of financial loss. Treat betting as paid entertainment, not a way to make money. Keep your play safe by setting limits and using control tools before you start.
At 1win, you can manage your playing through useful tools and settings. These tools help protect your budget and reduce harm.
- Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control spending.
- Add loss and stake limits so each session stays within your plan.
- Use session time limits and reality checks to track playing time.
- Take a short time-out to pause and reset when needed.
- Choose self-exclusion for longer breaks from gambling.
- Review your account statements to learn from past activity.
- Keep betting separate from essential expenses like rent or fees.
- Avoid betting when stressed, tired, or under the influence.
- Never chase losses; stop when your set limit is reached.
- Confirm your age and complete KYC to keep the platform safe for all players.
How to Recognize Betting Addiction?
Warning signs can build up slowly. Pay attention to changes in money, time, and mood. Gambling addiction is a serious condition that needs timely attention.
- Thinking about betting most of the day.
- Spending more than you can afford or hiding losses.
- Needing bigger bets to feel the same excitement.
- Chasing losses after a bad session.
- Skipping work, studies, or family duties to gamble.
- Borrowing money or selling items to fund gambling.
- Feeling irritable, anxious, or low when not playing.
- Lying to loved ones about gambling activity.
- Repeated failed attempts to cut down or stop.
- Using betting to escape stress, sadness, or conflicts.
If several signs fit your situation, seek support and consider a break from gambling.

Taking action early helps reduce harm. A structured plan and reliable support make a real difference.
