Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

At Lasers Produce, we believe that crypto gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and always set realistic expectations about the odds.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age to access and use gambling services in Canada. In some provinces, the legal age may be higher. It is your responsibility to comply with all local laws and regulations regarding gambling age requirements.

If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not access gambling platforms.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognize 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 excitement
• Lying to family, friends, or therapists about gambling habits or expenditures
• Neglecting work, school, family, or relationships due to gambling
• Gambling as an escape from problems, stress, anxiety, or depression
• Feeling restless or irritable when trying to reduce or stop gambling
• Borrowing money to gamble or pay off gambling debts
• Spending more time or money gambling than originally intended
• Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling

Self-Help Tools & Player Protection Features

Most reputable gambling platforms offer tools to help you stay in control:

• Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount you can deposit
• Loss Limits: Cap the amount of money you're willing to lose during a session or time period
• Reality Checks: Receive regular notifications about how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
• Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from gambling platforms for a set period (days, weeks, months, or permanently)

Use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits.
