Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At emmahmoney.com, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Stake Casino and all forms of gambling carry risks, and it's important to play responsibly and within your means.

Please gamble only with money you can afford to lose, and never view it as an investment or income source.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to use Stake Casino and any affiliated services. We take this seriously and conduct age verification checks during account registration.

If you are under the legal age to gamble, please do not attempt to access gambling platforms. Underage gambling can lead to serious harm.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Recognise these warning signs that gambling may be becoming a problem:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money lost
• Gambling with increasing amounts to feel the same excitement
• Hiding or lying about your gambling activities and spending
• Neglecting family, work, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
• Experiencing anxiety, depression, or stress related to gambling
• Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
• Feeling unable to control or stop gambling despite wanting to
• Gambling as a way to escape problems or negative emotions
• Unsuccessful attempts to cut back or quit gambling
• Risking important relationships, jobs, or opportunities because of gambling

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, it's time to seek help.

Self-Help Tools and Safer Gambling Features

Responsible gambling platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose within a given period
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders during your gaming session about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
• Session Time Limits: Automatically end your gaming session after a set duration
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing the platform
• Account Cooling Off: Take a break from gambling by temporarily suspending your account

Use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits. Most reputable platforms like Stake Casino make these features easily accessible in account settings.
