Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Safe Gaming
At Comptoir de Panne Tout, we believe that online casino gaming should be entertainment only—never a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We're committed to promoting responsible gambling practices and supporting players who may be struggling with their gaming habits.
Age Verification
Online casino gaming in Canada is restricted to players who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age in your province, where applicable). We verify the age of all players before allowing access to our platform. If you are under the legal age to gamble, please do not use our services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses: Trying to win back money you've lost by gambling more
- Hiding gambling activity: Being secretive about how much you gamble or how much money you spend
- Loss of control: Being unable to stick to limits you've set for yourself
- Gambling with money you can't afford to lose: Using rent, bill, or grocery money to gamble
- Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work, school, or time with family due to gambling
- Mood changes: Becoming irritable, anxious, or depressed when not gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble: Taking loans or using credit cards to fund gaming
- Escalating stakes: Needing to gamble larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
- Failed attempts to quit: Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or stop gambling
Self-Help Tools
We offer several tools to help you maintain control over your gaming:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit per day, week, or month
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a gaming session
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Session Limits: Automatically end your gaming session after a set period of time
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently close your account if you need a break from gambling
