Weza Bet Responsible Gambling Guidelines
Introduction
Weza Bet's vision is to create a safe and conducive environment where players can engage in betting and gambling activities while also enjoying their favourite sporting events. We encourage all customers to treat betting as an enjoyable and entertaining activity rather than a source of income.
Signs of Irresponsible/Uncontrolled Gambling
Recognizing the signs of irresponsible gambling is crucial in ensuring that betting remains a healthy and entertaining activity. Here are some key indicators of uncontrolled gambling behaviour:
- Betting Beyond Affordability: Wagering with more money than you can comfortably afford to lose.
- Chasing Losses: Placing additional bets with the sole aim of recovering previous losses.
- Relying on Gambling as a Source of Income: Viewing betting as a primary means to earn a living.
- Excessive Time on Betting Sites: Spending an inordinate amount of time on gambling platforms and focusing excessively on predictions.
- Betting in an Unstable State: Placing bets when experiencing strong emotions or under the influence of substances.
- Sacrificing Social Time: Choosing betting activities over spending time with family, friends, or work colleagues.
- Prioritising Gambling Over Life Activities: Placing gambling above other responsibilities and engagements.
Tips to Become a Responsible Gambler
To promote responsible gambling, Weza Bet advises its customers to follow these tips, along with any additional guidance they may receive:
- Bet with What You Can Afford to Lose: Always use disposable income and avoid risking funds meant for essential expenses.
- Avoid Chasing Losses: Understand that losses are a part of gambling and should not lead to impulsive behaviour to recover them.
- Remember Gambling Is for Fun: Treat betting as an entertaining activity and never as a reliable way to make a living.
- Limit Time Spent on Betting Sites: Take regular breaks and spend as little time as possible on gambling platforms.
- Maintain a Clear Mind: Avoid betting when in an emotionally vulnerable state, such as feeling excited, angry, sad, or depressed. Additionally, do not place bets under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
- Communicate with Trusted Individuals: Keep friends and family informed about your gambling activities—they can support and advise if needed.
- Take Breaks from Gambling: Allocate time to engage in essential socioeconomic activities and take breaks from gambling to maintain a balanced lifestyle.
Measures to Protect Minors
Weza Bet is committed to preventing underage gambling by ensuring only individuals aged 18 and above can participate. To maintain this commitment, the following measures have been implemented:
- Age Verification: Customers must confirm that they are 18 years or older by ticking a verification box during registration.
- Device Protection: Adults are encouraged to protect their devices with passwords to prevent minors from accessing betting content.
- Web Filtering Software: Use of content filtering tools, such as Net Nanny, is recommended to limit exposure of minors to gambling and other harmful online content.
Weza Bet is committed to promoting responsible gambling by providing an environment where betting is fun, controlled, and safe. By recognizing the signs of irresponsible gambling and adhering to best practices, players can ensure that their gambling experiences remain positive.
