Responsible Gaming at MEGA Casino Canada
At MEGA Casino, we believe that gambling should remain a fun and entertaining pastime. Our Responsible Gaming program is designed to ensure that every player maintains control over their gaming experience while enjoying a secure, transparent, and fair environment.
Playing Responsibly
- Entertainment, Not Income: Gambling is a form of entertainment, not a method to earn a living. Always play with money you can afford to lose, and never use funds allocated for essential expenses such as rent or bills.
- Avoid Chasing Losses: If you experience a losing streak, do not attempt to chase losses. Instead, take a step back and review your spending habits by regularly checking your activity on the Balance page.
Recognizing the Risks
Gambling can become problematic for some individuals. It’s important to recognize signs that your gambling habits might be developing into an issue:
- Constant preoccupation with gambling.
- The need to wager larger amounts to maintain excitement.
- Repeated unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop gambling.
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to limit or stop gambling.
- Gambling to escape from personal problems or negative emotions.
- Experiencing negative impacts in personal relationships, work, or health.
Understanding these indicators can help you take proactive steps to manage your gaming behavior.
Tools for Maintaining Control
MEGA Casino offers a range of features to help you manage your gambling habits effectively:
- Deposit Limits: When setting up your account, you can establish daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much you spend.
- Time Limit Controls: Ask for an automatic logout after a specific period to remind you to take a break.
- Game Status Reminders: Enable pop-up notifications that display your gameplay duration, bet amounts, and overall wins or losses. With each notification, you can choose to continue playing or log out.
- Cooling-Off Periods, Temporary Suspension, and Self-Exclusion:
- Cooling-Off: Choose a break of 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days.
- Temporary Suspension: Opt for a suspension period of 30, 60, or 90 days.
- Self-Exclusion: For a more extended or indefinite break, you can self-exclude. This will prevent gambling, depositing, and the receipt of marketing materials across all accounts under our license. If you later decide to revoke your self-exclusion, simply follow the instructions provided upon logging into your account.

If you’re concerned about your gaming habits, consider taking a self-assessment test—available within your personal area on our platform—to evaluate if gambling might be becoming an issue. Additionally, professional help is available through reputable organizations such as:

Our Customer Support team is available 24/7 to address any questions or concerns you might have.
Protection and Security Measures
- Account Security: Protect your personal details by never sharing your username or password. Always log out after your session and avoid using the “Remember Password” feature, especially on shared devices.
- Preventing Underage Gambling: MEGA Casino enforces strict age verification protocols. We do not permit players under the age of 18. Parents are encouraged to install filtering software such as Cyber Patrol, GamBlock, or Net Nanny to help prevent underage access.
