Responsible Gambling
Melbet is committed to promoting a safe and responsible betting environment for all users in India. The platform provides a range of tools and resources to help users maintain control over their betting behaviour and seek assistance when required.
Importance of Responsible Betting
Online betting carries inherent financial risk. Users are encouraged to treat betting as a form of entertainment and to set strict personal limits on time and money spent on the platform. Betting should never be used as a method to recover financial losses or to address personal difficulties.
Available Control Tools
The following self-management tools are available to registered users:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on the amount you deposit into your account.
- Loss Limits: Restrict the total amount you are permitted to lose within a defined period.
- Session Time Limits: Set a maximum duration for each active betting session.
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily restrict access to your account for a defined period or permanently. During the exclusion period, the account cannot be accessed or reactivated.
- Reality Checks: Configure periodic notifications that display the time elapsed during an active session.
- Account Cooling-Off: Request a temporary pause on betting activity without permanent account closure.
To activate any of these tools, users should access the responsible gambling section within their account settings or contact customer support directly.
Self-Assessment
If you are uncertain about your betting habits, the platform encourages you to use available self-assessment questionnaires. These tools help identify whether betting behaviour may be becoming problematic.
Support Organisations and Resources
Users who believe they may have a gambling-related problem are encouraged to seek professional assistance. The following organisations offer confidential support:
- iGaming India: Resources and guidance on responsible gambling practices in India.
- Gamblers Anonymous India: Peer support for individuals affected by compulsive gambling.
