Responsible gambling

Purpose of this page

Gambling is a paid form of entertainment, not a way to earn money. This page sets out how to keep play within limits you choose, which signs show that it is getting out of hand, and where responsibility for gambling rules sits in Canada.

Gambling rules in Canada

There is no national gambling regulator in Canada. Under section 207 of the Criminal Code, gambling is conducted, managed and licensed by each province under its own law. The rules that apply to you, including the minimum age, depend on the province where you live. Check them before you register anywhere.

Rooster Bet is operated by Novatrix SRL, which holds licence No. 0000002 from the Tobique Gaming Commission. This site does not state that the brand is licensed or available in any Canadian province.

Habits that keep play in check

Set a budget before you start and treat it as money already spent.
Decide how long you will play and stop when that time is up.
Never gamble with money needed for rent, bills, food or debts.
Do not try to win back losses with bigger stakes.
Do not play when you are upset, tired or under the influence of alcohol.

Warning signs

Gambling may be causing harm if you recognize any of these:

You spend more money or time than you planned.
You think about gambling most of the day.
You borrow money or sell things to gamble.
You hide how much you gamble from family or friends.
You feel anxious, guilty or irritable when you try to stop.
Gambling affects your work, studies or relationships.

Tools and account questions

Settings that limit your play are managed on the operator's platform, not on this site. This site holds no accounts and cannot change limits for you. Ask Rooster Bet support about the options on your account. The operator lists email, live chat, Intercom and WhatsApp as support channels.

Getting help

If gambling is causing you or someone close to you harm, talk to a person you trust or to a health professional. Stop playing while you do. Taking a break is always a valid choice.
