Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Simply Maid, we believe that online casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While casino games can be fun and exciting, they are games of chance where the house always has a mathematical advantage. Please gamble only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Online gambling in Canada is available only to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your province). We are committed to preventing underage gambling and maintaining a safe gaming environment. All players must verify their age and identity before accessing casino services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, help is available:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount spent
- Neglecting family, work, school, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, anxiety, or depression
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money for excitement
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce gambling
- Borrowing money or going into debt to finance gambling
- Failed attempts to control or stop gambling
- Risking important relationships, jobs, or opportunities because of gambling
Self-Help Tools & Player Protections
Most licensed online casinos offer tools to help you maintain control over your gaming:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a gaming session
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic reminders or session timeouts to track how long you've been playing
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic pop-up reminders showing your time played and money spent
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from an online casino for a set period (days, months, or years)
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if needed
We encourage you to use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gaming habits.
