Responsible gambling
Sports betting is for adults only (18 and over).
Betting should stay a hobby
Play responsibly: set yourself a budget, never chase your losses and take regular breaks. Sports betting is not a way to make a living: it's entertainment, with a real risk of loss.
Our tips
- Set a monthly budget you won't go over.
- Never bet money you need to live on.
- Don't try to chase your losses after a loss.
- Take regular breaks and keep up other hobbies.
- Don't bet while emotional or under the influence of alcohol.
Operator tools
Reputable sites offer responsible gambling tools: deposit limits, stake limits, temporary or permanent self-exclusion. Don't hesitate to switch them on in your account settings.
Under-18s not permitted
Sports betting is strictly forbidden for anyone under 18. You must be 18 or older to bet. If gambling is becoming a problem for you or someone close to you, talk to those around you and reach out to the National Responsible Gambling Programme (NRGP) without delay: call 0800 006 008 or visit responsiblegambling.org.za.
