Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Luckywave, we believe gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. It should never be viewed as a way to make money, solve financial problems, or earn an income. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Gambling is strictly for adults only. You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to participate in any gambling activities on Luckywave. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and regularly verify the age of our users.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, problem gambling may be developing:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Gambling with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same level of excitement
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the time and money spent
- Neglecting family, work, education, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Experiencing mood swings or irritability when unable to gamble
- Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
- Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or difficult emotions
- Betting larger amounts than originally intended
Self-Help Tools
Luckywave provides tools to help you maintain control over your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a session or time period
- Reality Checks: Receive notifications during your gaming session to remind you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account if you feel your gambling is becoming problematic
- Account Closure: Close your account at any time if you wish to stop gambling
We encourage you to use these tools proactively to maintain responsible gambling habits.
