Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Playing games like Aviator should be viewed as entertainment only—a fun activity to enjoy in your spare time. Never consider gambling as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and always set strict limits on your time and spending.
Age Verification
Gaming is only for adults. In India, you must be at least 18 years of age or the legal age in your jurisdiction to participate in any gambling activities. We strictly enforce age verification to protect minors. If you are below the legal age, please do not access gaming platforms.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognize any of the following behaviors in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate problem gambling:
- Chasing Losses: Continuously trying to win back money you've lost
- Hiding Gambling: Concealing your gaming activities from family or friends
- Loss of Control: Unable to stop playing or set time limits
- Neglecting Responsibilities: Gambling instead of attending to work, school, or family obligations
- Financial Strain: Borrowing money or using credit to gamble
- Mood Changes: Becoming anxious, irritable, or depressed when unable to gamble
- Escalating Bets: Needing to wager more money to achieve the same excitement
- Relationship Issues: Gaming causing conflict with loved ones
Self-Help Tools & Controls
Most responsible gaming platforms offer tools to help you maintain control. Consider using these features:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a cap on how much you're willing to lose
- Reality Checks: Receive reminders at regular intervals during your gaming session
- Session Time Limits: Automatically end your session after a set duration
