Responsible Gaming
1. Gambling Should Be Entertainment — Not a Source of Income
At digixprt.com, we believe that playing Andar Bahar and other online casino games should always be a form of leisure and entertainment. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money, solve financial problems, or pay off debts. The house always has an edge, and over time, the odds are against the player. Please treat every wager as the cost of entertainment — money you can afford to lose — and never gamble with funds meant for rent, food, education, or family obligations.
2. Age Verification — 18+ Only
Online gambling is strictly for adults. In India, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the higher legal age applicable in your state) to participate in any form of real-money gaming. Please note that gambling laws vary across Indian states — some states prohibit or restrict online gambling entirely. It is your responsibility to confirm that online gaming is legal in your state of residence before playing.
We encourage all players and parents to:
- Never share your account or payment details with minors.
- Use parental control software (e.g., Net Nanny, Qustodio) on shared devices.
- Keep devices logged out of gambling accounts when not in use.
3. Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Ask yourself honestly whether any of the following apply to you or someone you care about:
- ☐ Chasing losses — gambling more to try to win back money you have lost
- ☐ Hiding your gambling activity from family or friends
- ☐ Borrowing money, selling possessions, or taking loans to gamble
- ☐ Spending more time or money on gambling than you intended
- ☐ Neglecting work, studies, or family responsibilities because of gambling
- ☐ Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when trying to cut down or stop
- ☐ Gambling to escape stress, loneliness, depression, or other problems
- ☐ Lying about how much you gamble or how much you have lost
- ☐ Unsuccessfully trying to stop or reduce gambling
- ☐ Thinking about gambling constantly, even when doing other things
If you ticked even a few of these boxes, it may be time to take a break and seek support. Recognising the problem early is a sign of strength, not weakness.
4. Self-Help Tools
Reputable online casinos offer tools to help you stay in control. We strongly recommend using them before you start playing:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you can deposit.
- Loss Limits: Restrict the total amount you can lose within a set period.
- Wager/Session Limits: Control how much you bet or how long you play in one session.
- Reality Checks: Enable on-screen reminders showing how long you have been playing and how much you have spent.
- Cooling-Off / Time-Out: Take a short break (24 hours to several weeks) from your account.
- Self-Exclusion: Block yourself from a gambling site for a longer period (6 months, 1 year, or permanently). Contact the casino's support team directly to activate this.
Additional practical steps: never gamble under the influence of alcohol or when upset, set a strict budget in advance, and treat any winnings as a bonus — not expected income.
