Responsible gambling

At Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG), we are committed to providing a safe and responsible gaming experience for all our players. We understand that gaming can be entertaining, but it's essential to set limits and play within your means.

Set Your Limits: Deposit, Wagering, and Loss

To help you stay in control, OLG offers several tools:

Deposit Limits: Set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit on how much you deposit into your account.
Wagering Limits: Control the amount of money you wager per session or day.
Loss Limits: Establish limits for potential losses to prevent excessive spending.

Take Breaks with Time-Outs

If needed, take a temporary break from gaming using our time-out feature:

Set a period (e.g., 24 hours, 7 days) when you won't be able to access your account or place bets.
During this time, we'll send reminders and provide resources for managing your gaming habits.

Self-Exclusion: A Long-Term Solution

If you feel that gaming is negatively impacting your life, consider self-excluding from OLG's online platforms:

Block yourself from logging in or placing bets on our sites.
No promotional materials will be sent to excluded accounts.
