Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Edwards Alumni, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your Canadian province) to participate in online gambling. We verify the age of all players during registration. If you are under the legal age, you are not permitted to use our services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you experience any of the following, you may be developing a gambling problem:
- Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding or lying about your gambling activities
- Neglecting family, friends, work, or school due to gambling
- Gambling to escape problems or relieve stress
- Feeling anxious or irritable when trying to reduce gambling
- Increasing the amount you gamble to achieve the same excitement
- Being unable to stop or control your gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Experiencing financial, legal, or relationship problems due to gambling

We provide the following tools to help you maintain control over your gaming:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much you spend
- Loss Limits: Set maximum loss limits to prevent excessive losses
- 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 playing for a period you choose
