Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At Cruisin' the Musical, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to gamble within their means and to seek help if they feel their gaming has become problematic.

Age Verification

All players must be at least 18 years of age or the legal age for gambling in their province of residence in Canada to play at our affiliated casinos. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not attempt to access gaming services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognize any of the following warning signs in your own behavior or that of someone you know, it may be time to seek help:

• Gambling more frequently or with larger amounts than intended
• Chasing losses by continuing to gamble to recover money lost
• Neglecting family, friends, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
• Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount of time and money spent
• Experiencing mood changes or becoming irritable when unable to gamble
• Using gambling as an escape from problems, stress, anxiety, or depression
• Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
• Feeling unable to stop or cut back on gambling despite wanting to
• Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
• Requiring larger bets to achieve the same level of excitement

Self-Help Tools

Most reputable online casinos offer a range of responsible gaming tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit within a specified time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Establish a cap on losses you're willing to incur during a gaming session
• Reality Checks: Enable notifications that remind you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently block yourself from accessing gaming accounts
• Time-Out: Take a break from gambling for a set period without fully closing your account

We strongly encourage you to utilize these tools to maintain a healthy approach to gaming.
