Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

At Brayauto.ca, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming. Online casino gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never view it as an investment or income source.

Set realistic expectations: the house always has a mathematical advantage. Play for fun, play within your means, and know when to stop.

Age Verification

Online gaming in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your province, whichever is higher). It is your responsibility to verify that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction before participating in any gaming activities.

Brayauto.ca does not knowingly permit underage individuals to access gaming services. If you are underage, please do not use our platform.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be aware of these warning signs:

• Chasing Losses: Attempting to recover lost money by gambling more
• Hiding Gambling: Concealing the extent of your gaming from family or friends
• Neglecting Responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family commitments due to gambling
• Increasing Amounts: Needing to gamble larger amounts to feel the same excitement
• Loss of Control: Inability to stick to pre-set limits or stop playing
• Mood Changes: Becoming irritable or anxious when not gambling
• Financial Strain: Borrowing money, maxing out credit cards, or experiencing financial problems due to gambling
• Failed Attempts to Quit: Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or stop gambling
• Using Gambling to Cope: Gambling to escape problems, stress, anxiety, or depression

If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features

Many online casinos offer built-in tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Establish a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a set period
• Session Time Limits: Set automatic reminders or cutoffs for gaming sessions
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic notifications during play to remind you of elapsed time and money spent
• Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from accessing gaming platforms for a defined period
• Account Cooling-Off Period: Request a temporary pause on your account before returning to play

Take advantage of these tools. They're designed to help you stay in control and enjoy gaming responsibly.
