Using Deposit Restriction

1. Why do you need a deposit limit

Deposit limit - a basic barrier that does not allow replenishing an account in excess of a predetermined amount for a day, week or month. Is he:
  • Prevents impulsive multiple replenishment.
  • Guarantees the safety of the main budget.
  • Forms financial discipline.

2. Calculation of the optimal limit

1. Determine the monthly income and deduct the mandatory expenses (housing, food, loans).
2. Allocate 5-10% of your balance to entertainment.
3. Take 20-30% of this amount for excitement: this will be your monthly deposit limit.
4. Break it down into periods:
  • Weekly = monthly ÷ 4.
  • Daily = weekly ÷ number of playing days (2-3).

* Example: income 2000 €, mandatory spending 1400 € → balance 600 € → 10% for leisure = 60 € → 30% for excitement = 18 € per month → 4.5 € per week → 1.5 € per day (with 3 game days).

3. Setting up a limit in your personal account

1. Authorization: Sign in to your account.
2. Responsible Gaming section: in the menu of your personal account.
3. Period selection: "Deposit Limits" tab.
4. Enter daily, weekly, and/or monthly limits.
5. Confirmation: save the settings; when trying to increase the limit, "cooling" of 24-72 hours and 2FA may be required.

4. Checking the operation of the limit

Test deposit: try to deposit €1 more than the limit - the transaction must be rejected.
Status in the office: next to each limit should be the flag "Active" or "Enabled."
Notifications: when you reach 75-90% of the threshold, you will receive a soft alert (email, push, pop-up).

5. Best Use Practices

Start with conservative values: it is better to lower the limit than later regret overspending.
Combine with other limits: bets, losses, time. Layered protection is more effective than a single barrier.
Do not change the limit while hot: any increase goes through a "cooling" for at least 24 hours.
Analyze spending regularly: check casino statements against current limits once a week.

6. Long-term benefits

Saving your budget: You're only spending the planned amount.
Reducing stress: Less worry about overspending.
Formation of a responsible habit: deposit control is transferred to other areas of finance.

7. Conclusion

The deposit limit is a simple but powerful tool to protect against gambling losses. Proper calculation, fine-tuning and discipline in use allow you to enjoy the game while maintaining control over your finances.
