Responsible Gambling
Gambling should stay a form of entertainment, and it carries financial risk and the possibility of harm. BetRivers supports responsible gambling and provides tools and information to help you stay in control. This page summarizes the main principles and safeguards available. Only play with money you can afford to lose, and never treat betting as a source of income. For related rules, see the Terms & Conditions and the Privacy Policy.
Minimum age
Participation is limited to individuals who meet the minimum legal gambling age for BetRivers, which is 21. Protecting minors is a priority: age is checked during verification, and accounts without valid age confirmation may be restricted or closed. Keep your login credentials away from anyone under the legal age.
Self-control tools
A range of tools is available to help you manage your activity, accessible from your account dashboard.
Deposit and time limits
You can set daily, weekly or monthly deposit limits, along with wager and session time limits, to keep your play within a planned budget.
Cool-off and self-exclusion
A cool-off period lets you pause your account from 24 hours to 30 days. Self-exclusion is available for longer periods, including 30 days, six months, one year or permanent closure. Many states also run a voluntary self-exclusion program. During these periods, access to gambling is blocked.
Warning signs
Problem gambling can show through several signs. Consider taking a break or seeking support if you notice any of the following.
- Betting more than you can afford to lose
- Chasing losses with more bets
- Neglecting work, studies or relationships
- Gambling to escape stress or negative feelings
- Losing track of time or money spent
Official help resources
If you feel your gambling is becoming hard to control, free and confidential support is available. In the United States, the National Council on Problem Gambling operates the national helpline 1-800-GAMBLER, which offers information, guidance and support for players and their families around the clock. Many state gaming boards also provide problem-gambling resources and voluntary self-exclusion registers. Asking for help early makes a difference.
Privacy of responsible gambling data
Information you provide in connection with limits or self-exclusion is treated confidentially and in line with the Privacy Policy. 21+. Gambling can be addictive; please play responsibly.
