Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Funtopia Playground, we believe that online casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling is not a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. If you're playing with money you can't afford to lose, you're gambling irresponsibly.

We're committed to promoting safe and responsible gaming practices. Please read the information below to understand how to gamble responsibly and where to find help if you need it.

Age Verification

You must be 18 years of age or older to play on Funtopia Playground. This is the legal age requirement in Canada for online gaming. We take age verification seriously and verify all players during registration.

If you are under 18, please do not attempt to create an account. Gaming is not appropriate for minors.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Do any of these warning signs apply to you? If so, you may be developing a gambling problem:

• Borrowing to Gamble: Taking loans or borrowing money to fund your gambling
• Mood Changes: Becoming irritable, anxious, or depressed when not gambling
• Tolerance Building: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement

If you recognize any of these signs, please reach out for help immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Controls

Funtopia Playground provides several tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit on how much money you can deposit into your account. Once you've reached your limit, you won't be able to deposit more until the period resets.

Loss Limits

Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose within a specific time period. When you reach this limit, your account will be temporarily suspended.

Reality Checks

Enable pop-up notifications that remind you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered. These interruptions help you stay aware of your gaming activity.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you've lost control, you can self-exclude from your account for a period of time (30 days, 6 months, or longer). During this time, you won't be able to access your account or use our services. Self-exclusion is confidential and free.

Taking a Break

Consider taking a break from gaming. Step away and engage in other activities that bring you joy and fulfillment.
