Batery Bet Responsible Gaming

Gambling always involves the risk of financial loss. No outcome is guaranteed, and no strategy eliminates that risk entirely. Responsible gaming is about staying aware of this and making informed choices at all times.

Batery Bet encourages all players to treat gambling as a form of entertainment, not a source of income. The platform provides practical tools to help you set healthy boundaries and protect your financial and emotional wellbeing.

Key principles to follow:

• Set a fixed budget before you start and never exceed it;
• Treat any losses as the cost of entertainment, not a reason to keep playing;
• Take regular breaks to maintain a clear perspective;
• Never gamble under emotional distress, fatigue, or the influence of substances;
• Keep gambling separate from your daily financial obligations;
• Use the responsible gaming controls available on Batery to manage your activity;
• Stay informed about the risks associated with betting and casino play;
• Only play with funds you can afford to lose.

Betting addiction is a serious condition that can develop gradually and affect all areas of a person’s life. Being aware of the warning signs is the first step towards protecting yourself or someone close to you.

Common indicators to watch for:

• Spending more time or money on gambling than originally planned;
• Feeling restless or irritable when attempting to reduce or stop gambling;
• Chasing losses by placing more bets to recover money already lost;
• Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling activity;
• Hiding gambling habits from family members or close friends;
• Neglecting work, studies, or personal responsibilities due to gambling;
• Continuing to gamble despite repeated negative financial or personal consequences;
• Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, or difficult emotions;
• Repeatedly failing to cut back or stop gambling despite genuine attempts to do so;
• Feeling preoccupied with gambling, such as constantly planning the next session or replaying past bets.

If you recognise several of these signs in yourself or someone you know, it is important to seek professional support without delay.

If you are worried about your betting, use the listed services:

• Gamblers Anonymous (international peer support);
• Gambling Therapy (global online help);
• Responsible Gaming website of the National Betting Authority (information, a self-test, and a finance tool in Greek for people at risk and their families).

It is illegal for anyone under 18, or under the legal age in their area, to open an account or gamble on the site. Batery Bet performs age checks, accounts used by minors will lose any winnings and may be reported to law enforcement. Parents can add blocking tools to restrict access to gambling sites. Examples include Net Nanny, CYBERsitter, GamBlock, and Betfilter; many devices also include built-in parental controls.

You can ask Batery Bet support to add limits or a break. Options include:

• Limit total stakes per day, week, or month;
• Limit total losses over a set period;
• Limit total logged-in time;
• Take a short time out for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days;
• Apply self-exclusion for 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or indefinitely.

During an active time out or self-exclusion, you cannot bet; you may log in only to withdraw your balance. Self-exclusion cannot be lifted early. After it ends, you must ask support to reopen the account and wait 24 hours as a cooling-off period. Marketing is suppressed for accounts in time out or self-exclusion.

If you decrease a cash spend limit or a loss limit, the change takes effect as soon as support receives it. If you increase a cash spend limit or a loss limit, the change takes effect only after seven calendar days from the last limit set on that topic. If you increase a time-out, the change starts immediately; if you decrease a time-out, the change applies only after seven days from the last time-out setting.
