Set your own daily, weekly, and monthly deposit limits. Limits take effect immediately once set, but increasing them requires a 24-hour waiting period.

Self-Exclusion Benefits

If you need longer-term support, you can self-exclude for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years. Your account cannot be reactivated during this period.

Reality Check

You'll receive regular reminders showing how long you've been playing and how much you've spent. Stay aware, stay in control.

Loss Limit

Your betting will be automatically restricted once you exceed a set loss threshold. This protects you from serious financial harm.

24/7 Support

If you have any questions or need support around responsible betting, our team is always here — completely confidential and judgment-free.

One Bets believes betting should be purely a form of entertainment, not a source of income. Read this responsible gaming page in full — it's here for you.

1. What Responsible Betting Actually Means

Responsible betting means enjoying the game as entertainment without letting it negatively affect your life. At One Bets, we want you to stay mindful with every bet — how much time you're spending, how much money you're putting in, and why you're playing.

Betting is a form of entertainment. Placing a bet on a cricket or football match adds to the excitement of the game, but it should never be seen as a way to solve financial problems. Responsible betting means playing within your means and accepting wins and losses as part of the experience.

Our responsible betting policy is built on three core principles — Awareness, Control and Support. If you ever feel that betting is taking over your life, contact One Bets support immediately.

For Entertainment

Betting is a form of enjoyment. The right mindset is to not let a loss stress you out.

Within Your Means

Only bet what you can afford to lose without it affecting your everyday life.

Keep track of your time

Be mindful of how long you've been playing. Spending excessive time is a warning sign.

2. Recognising the Signs of Problem Gambling

It's not always easy to recognize when betting has shifted from entertainment to a problem. Watch out for these signs in yourself:

Financial Indicators

  • Betting more to chase lost money — and it's the most common trap.
  • Spending money that your family needs on betting.
  • Betting with borrowed money or funds taken from others.
  • Lying to family about how much you spend on betting.

Psychological & Behavioral Signs

  • Feeling restless or irritable when unable to bet.
  • Repeated failed attempts to cut down or stop betting.
  • Neglecting work, studies, or family relationships.
  • Constantly thinking about betting.
  • Chasing losses by betting more out of anger or frustration.

If even one of the signs above feels familiar, it's time to take it seriously. There's no shame in it — reaching out for help takes real courage.

3. Self-Assessment — Check In With Yourself

Answer the following questions honestly. This isn't a test — it's for your own benefit.

Be Honest With Yourself

Check the statements that feel true for you.

4. Responsible Gaming Tools at One Bets

5. Practical Tips for Safe Betting

Years of experience have shown us that players who bet responsibly tend to follow a few simple rules. Sticking to these tips keeps betting enjoyable every time.

1
Set a budget before you bet

Decide in advance how much you'll spend on betting each week or month. Think of it as your entertainment budget — an amount you're comfortable losing.

2
Stop After a Loss

"Just one more bet and I'll win it back" — step away from that mindset. Chasing losses is never a good decision.

3
Don't Bet Under Stress

Don't bet when you're angry, upset, frustrated, or under the influence of alcohol. Making sound decisions in those states is difficult.

4
Don't treat betting as a source of income

Winning is exciting, but it's not a reliable source of income. Don't rely on betting to cover your family's financial needs.

5
Spend Time on Other Activities

Make time for family, friends, hobbies, and physical activity — not just betting. Betting shouldn't be your only form of entertainment.

6
Take Regular Breaks

Take regular breaks instead of betting continuously. Keep Reality Check reminders turned on.

6. Self-Exclusion — How It Works

If you feel that controlling your betting has become difficult, Self-Exclusion is the most effective solution. Self-excluding on One Bets is quick and straightforward.

📧
Email Request

Send an email to support@onebets.ws with the subject "Self-Exclusion Request".

⏱️
Choose a Duration

6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or permanently — whichever you prefer.

Effective Immediately

Your account will be closed within 24 hours of receiving your request.

What Happens During Self-Exclusion

  • You will be completely locked out of your account.
  • No promotional emails or SMS will be sent.
  • Your account balance will remain safe.
  • To reactivate your account after the exclusion period ends, please contact our support team.
  • A permanent exclusion means your account will never be reopened.

Do not attempt to open a new account while your self-exclusion period is active. This violates our responsible betting agreement and ultimately harms you.
