Staying in Control
Every Victoria Casino player is covered by this page. It takes effect once your account is opened and applies to all games, offers and devices you use with us.
Our Commitment
1.1 Slots, table games, live dealer games and our free daily prize game are entertainment you pay for. They are not a source of income, and we never market them that way.
1.2 We give you direct control over your time and spend. You set the tools. We enforce them.
1.3 We only take players from regions where local law permits online gambling. Our age checks, identity checks and anti-money laundering measures meet Canadian requirements.
1.4 We watch for warning signs, such as chasing losses, repeat deposits in one short session or a sudden spike in spending. If we see them, we email you and may apply limits while we discuss it with you.
1.5 During self-exclusion or a cooling-off break, you get no offers and no Victoria Rewards messages from us.
Free Support
2.1 The organisations listed here offer free, confidential support to anyone who gambles, as well as to their relatives and friends:
- Internet Matters
- Alberta Health Services Addiction Helpline
- ConnexOntario
- Gambling Therapy
2.2 There is no need to let us know before you reach out to them, and your account can stay open while you do.
2.3 Reaching out early works. Talk to someone before a small problem grows.
Your Tools
3.1 You can access every tool below from your account. Most work instantly, with no need to contact us.
Limits on Deposits, Wagers and Stakes
3.2 Deposit limit: caps the total you can add to your balance over a daily, weekly or monthly period you choose.
3.3 Wager limit: caps your total stakes across all games combined for the period you choose.
3.4 Stake limit: caps the amount you can place on any single bet or spin.
3.5 Once a limit is reached, that action is blocked until your chosen period ends. Set one limit or all three.
Reality Checks
3.6 Reality checks are on-screen alerts that pause your game at intervals you set. Each alert shows how long you have played this session, plus your wins and losses. Then you choose: continue playing or log out.
Time Alerts
3.7 Pick a time limit for each session. Once it runs out, we let you know and the choice to stop is yours.
Cooling-Off
3.8 Need a pause? Lock your account for anywhere between 24 hours and 6 weeks. During the lock, deposits and play are blocked, and all marketing stops.
3.9 You cannot end a cooling-off break early. Your account reopens on its own once the period is over.
Self-Exclusion
3.10 Self-exclusion is for players who want a longer block than cooling-off allows. Email us and tell us the period you want.
3.11 While excluded, your account stays locked, marketing stops and we will not reopen it early, even on request.
3.12 Any withdrawable balance is paid to your verified Interac e-Transfer or Instadebit account.
3.13 We also suggest adding gambling-blocking software to your devices and contacting one of the organisations named in section 2.
Account Closure
3.14 Want to leave for reasons unrelated to gambling harm? Email us and we shut the account down. If gambling is part of the reason, say so. We then treat it as self-exclusion so the account cannot be reopened by mistake.
Checking Identity and Location
3.15 Before we accept your first deposit, we verify your identity and location to make sure you are in a region where we take players. This keeps out under-age users and blocks play from places we do not serve. Full details are on our KYC & AML Policy page.
Changing a Limit
4.1 Lower a limit: it applies instantly.
4.2 Raise or remove a limit: this takes effect after 24 hours, and your existing limit applies until then.
4.3 You can cancel a pending increase before the 24 hours are up.
4.4 Cooling-off and self-exclusion periods cannot be shortened once set.
Minors
5.1 You must be 19 or older to play at Victoria Casino. No exceptions, and our free daily prize game is covered too.
5.2 Age is confirmed as part of the identity check before any deposit.
5.3 Is a laptop or phone in your home shared with a child? Log out every time you stop playing, and do not let the browser remember your password. Further guidance for parents and guardians is on our Protecting Minors page.
Self-Assessment
6.1 Take the self-assessment quiz from your account. The questions are short and direct, covering how you play, how much you spend and how much of your week goes on gambling.
6.2 Answer honestly. Your result is shown only to you.
6.3 Result shows a risk? Set a limit, contact one of the groups listed in section 2, or take a cooling-off break.
6.4 Retake the quiz whenever you like. Checking in regularly helps you spot changes early.
Contact
7.1 Need help with limits, breaks, self-exclusion or closing your account permanently? Email help@victoriacasino.app with Staying in Control in the subject line so it reaches the right person quickly.
7.2 Most tools work directly from your account, so you never need to wait for us to lower a limit.
