Responsible Gambling at Melbet
At Melbet, we advocate for fair, safe, and responsible gambling. We understand that gambling should remain a form of entertainment — not a source of income or a way to escape personal difficulties.
Potential Risks of Gambling
Excessive gambling can lead to serious consequences, including:
- deteriorating mental health (depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts),
- family, work, and academic problems,
- financial difficulties, including bankruptcy,
- and in extreme cases — criminal behavior.
Core Principles of Responsible Gambling
- Gambling should be a leisure activity, not a way to earn money.
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
- Set time and deposit limits — and stick to them.
- Never chase your losses.
- Do not gamble under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or when feeling depressed.
Protecting Minors and Vulnerable Individuals
Melbet strictly prohibits gambling by individuals under the age of 18.
We do not promote our services to minors or psychologically vulnerable individuals.
We recommend using parental control tools and dedicated software (such as NetNanny or Cyber Patrol) to prevent minors from accessing gambling platforms.
Age Verification
We regularly conduct age verification checks. If we are unable to verify your age automatically, we will request identity documents. Access to your account may be restricted until your age is confirmed.
Self-Exclusion and Limits
Melbet offers a voluntary self-exclusion service, which includes:
- limits on betting amounts,
- temporary account blocking for 1 month, 6 months, or 1 year.
To activate this feature, you must verify your identity. During the self-exclusion period, your account will be inaccessible. Early reactivation is subject to a case-by-case review and approval by the company.
Note: If you attempt to create a new account during the exclusion period, Melbet bears no responsibility for any activity on that new account.
Signs of Gambling Addiction
Answer “yes” or “no” to the following questions:
- Is your spending out of control?
- Have you borrowed money or stolen to continue gambling?
- Are you spending less time with family or friends?
- Do others’ opinions about your gambling irritate you?
- Have you lost interest in your hobbies or other pastimes?
- Have you felt depressed or suicidal because of your gambling losses?
- Have you ever lied about the time or money spent gambling?
If you answered “yes” to most of these questions, you may be developing a gambling problem.
Support and Prevention
Melbet supports global initiatives for responsible gambling and addiction prevention. We are committed to providing a safe and balanced environment that protects our users from harm.
If you feel that your gambling is out of control, don’t hesitate to seek help. Admitting there is a problem is the first step toward solving it.
