tv18 Responsible Gaming
At tv18, promoting responsible gaming is a core commitment. We believe in providing a safe and enjoyable environment where players can engage in betting and casino activities while maintaining control and balance.
We educate and empower our users to recognize risky behaviour and use available tools to protect themselves and their well-being.
Understanding Risky Gambling Behaviour
Risky behaviour may include chasing losses, betting beyond means, spending excessive time gambling, or neglecting usual responsibilities. Recognizing these signs early helps prevent harm.
Feeling anxious or agitated when unable to gamble, hiding gambling activity, or borrowing money frequently are additional warning signs.
We encourage players and their families to be aware and seek support if such signs appear.
Tips for Setting Time & Budget Limits
Keeping gaming fun requires clear personal limits. Set daily or weekly budgets and stick strictly to them, only using disposable income.
Limit the time you spend on gaming activities, balancing with other healthy leisure and social activities.
Use reminders or alarms if possible and take regular breaks to avoid continuous play.
Plan your play and mental approach before starting, avoiding emotional decision-making.
Self-Control Features at tv18
tv18 supports responsible play with features that enable self-management. You can set deposit limits to control your spending and avoid excess losses.
Cooling-off periods allow you to temporarily restrict your access to the platform for a pre-defined duration, helping to pause play and reflect.
Self-exclusion lets you suspend or close your account voluntarily if you need long-term relief from gambling.
Our support team is available to guide you through these options confidentially and respectfully.
Safeguarding Underage Players
tv18 is fully committed to preventing underage gambling. Access is strictly limited to users aged 18 or above in compliance with Indian laws.
Robust identity verification procedures are in place during registration to confirm age and identity.
We encourage parents and guardians to supervise internet use and employ parental controls where available.
Maintaining a Healthy Life Balance
Gaming should complement a balanced lifestyle, not disrupt it. Prioritize social connections, physical activity, work responsibilities, and rest outside of gaming times.
Avoid using gambling as a solution for stress or emotional problems. Seek healthy outlets and social support networks to nurture wellbeing.
Recognizing the signs of imbalance early can help preserve mental health and long-term happiness.
Encouragement to Seek Professional Help
If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling-related problems, professional help is available. Counselors and support groups specialize in providing assistance for behavioural addictions.
tv18 can provide contacts and referrals to local organizations offering confidential advice and treatment tailored to Indian players.
Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength and an important step toward recovery and maintaining a healthy relationship with gaming.
