Responsible Gambling at Pistolo

At Pistolo, we are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable gaming environment for all our players. Gambling should always remain a form of entertainment, never a way to solve financial problems or a compulsive habit. We encourage every player to gamble responsibly and stay in control.

Our Commitment to Responsible Gambling

We believe that responsible gambling is a shared responsibility between the operator and the player. Pistolo provides tools and resources to help you maintain healthy gaming habits and make informed decisions about your play.

Tools Available to You

Pistolo offers several features designed to help you stay in control of your gambling activity:

• Deposit limits — set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you can deposit
• Loss limits — control the maximum amount you can lose within a chosen timeframe
• Session time limits — receive reminders or automatic logouts after a set period of play
• Cooling-off periods — take a short break from gambling activity
• Self-exclusion — temporarily or permanently block access to your account
• Transaction history — review your deposits, withdrawals, and betting activity at any time

Signs of Problem Gambling

It is important to recognize when gambling stops being fun. Consider the following warning signs:

• Spending more money or time on gambling than you can afford
• Chasing losses by continuing to play in an attempt to win back money
• Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
• Neglecting work, studies, or personal relationships due to gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritated, or restless when not gambling
• Lying to others about the extent of your gambling
• Gambling as a way to escape stress or emotional problems

If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, we encourage you to seek help immediately.

Self-Assessment Questions

Ask yourself the following questions to evaluate your gambling behaviour:

• Do I gamble with money I cannot afford to lose?
• Has gambling ever affected my relationships?
• Do I feel the need to bet more to get the same level of excitement?
• Have I ever tried to stop gambling but could not?
• Do I feel guilty or anxious after gambling?

If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, it may be time to reconsider your gambling habits and seek support.

Tips for Gambling Responsibly

• Set a budget before you start playing and stick to it
• Never gamble under the influence of alcohol or drugs
• Take regular breaks during gaming sessions
• Do not view gambling as a source of income
• Balance gambling with other hobbies and activities
• Never chase your losses
