We take responsible gaming seriously and have implemented comprehensive measures to ensure our platform remains a safe environment for all players. Our commitment includes:

- Preventing underage gambling through strict age verification

Self-Control Tools
We offer several tools to help you stay in control of your gaming:
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much you can add to your account. These limits can be adjusted at any time through your account settings, with decreases taking effect immediately and increases requiring a 24-hour cooling-off period.
Loss Limits
Establish limits on how much you can lose over a specified period. This helps ensure you never wager more than you can afford to lose.
Session Time Reminders
Set alerts to remind you how long you've been playing. Regular breaks help maintain perspective and control.
Reality Checks
Receive periodic notifications about your gaming duration and spending, helping you stay aware of your activity.
Self-Exclusion
If you need to take a break, you can self-exclude from Galactic Wins for a period of 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. During this time, you won't be able to access your account or receive marketing communications.
Cool-Off Periods
Take a short break from gaming for 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Your account will be temporarily suspended during this period.
Recognizing Problem Gambling
It's important to recognize the signs of problem gambling. Ask yourself these questions:
- Do you gamble longer than you intended?
- Do you spend more money than you can afford to lose?
- Has gambling affected your work, studies, or relationships?
- Do you feel the need to gamble with increasing amounts of money?
- Do you chase losses or try to win back money you've lost?
- Do you borrow money or sell possessions to fund gambling?
- Do you feel restless or irritable when not gambling?
- Do you gamble to escape problems or relieve negative feelings?
If you answered "yes" to several of these questions, you may be experiencing a gambling problem and should seek help.
