Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At BB T College, we believe that cryptocurrency gambling and sports betting should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you find yourself gambling to make money or recover losses, it's time to seek help.

Remember: The house always has an edge. Play only with money you can afford to lose.

Age Verification

Gambling is only legal for individuals who are 18 years of age or older in Canada, or the legal gambling age in your province or territory.

BB T College is committed to preventing underage gambling. All users must verify their age during registration. We do not knowingly permit access to anyone under the legal gambling age.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Do any of these apply to you? If so, seek help immediately:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
• Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or essentials
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about how much you gamble
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts to feel the same excitement
• Unable to cut back or control gambling despite wanting to
• Neglecting family, work, school, or personal responsibilities
• Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
• Gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, or depression
• Jeopardizing relationships or employment due to gambling

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gambling Features

Most reputable online gambling platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a daily, weekly, or monthly period
• Loss Limits: Cap the amount you're willing to lose in a given timeframe
