Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At Geel Goud Auto, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Online casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all our players to gamble responsibly and within their means.
Age Verification
In South Africa, you must be at least 18 years of age to participate in online casino gaming. We take age verification seriously and verify all players' identities during registration. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to register or gamble on our platform.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in your own behaviour, please seek help immediately:
- Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses (gambling more to recover money lost)
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about how much you gamble
- Neglecting family, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, depressed, or irritable when not gambling
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts to achieve the same excitement
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling
- Gambling to escape problems or relieve stress
Self-Help Tools
Most responsible online casinos offer tools to help you manage your gaming. These may include:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you have been playing and how much you have spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling on the platform
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if needed
We strongly recommend using these tools to maintain control over your gaming habits.
