At 18j, we believe the best entertainment is safe entertainment. We provide tools, guides and support to help you stay in control at all times.
Responsible gaming means enjoying online gambling as a form of entertainment — not as a source of income or an escape from personal problems. It involves self-awareness, self-control, and informed decisions before, during, and after play.
18j takes this responsibility seriously. We not only provide a technically secure gaming platform, but also actively help users understand the risks, identify early warning signs, and take preventive action before situations escalate.
The basic principle: play for fun, not to settle debts or relieve stress. Set a budget before playing, respect the limits you set for yourself, and remember that winning is never guaranteed. Every game has a house edge — it is designed for entertainment, not as a primary source of income.
Gaming should make you feel entertained and relaxed, not anxious or stressed. The moment you start playing to "chase losses", that is a warning sign to take seriously.
Set the amount you are willing to lose before logging in. Treat that money as the cost of entertainment — just like a movie ticket or a dinner out. Never exceed this limit even if you feel you are "almost winning".
Do not let gaming interfere with your daily responsibilities — work, family and health. Take regular breaks and avoid playing late at night frequently, as poor decisions are often made when fatigued.
We provide a range of free tools that you can use anytime directly within your account.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once the limit is reached, our system automatically blocks additional deposits until the limit period expires.
Set the maximum loss amount within a given period. Once this limit is reached, you cannot continue playing until the next period begins.
Set a daily or weekly session time limit. 18j will send you a reminder when you are approaching the time limit and will automatically log you out once the limit is reached.
Take a break for 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. During the break period, your account will be fully blocked from gaming activity without affecting your fund balance.
A more permanent option — block your own account for 6 months, 1 year, or permanently. This option cannot be reversed arbitrarily and requires a dedicated review process.
An option to hide your account balance display during play to reduce the urge to keep playing simply because you can see your current balance.
Early awareness is the first step to staying in control. Recognise the warning signs to watch out for.
The process is simple and takes just a few minutes.
