FairPlay24: Responsible Gaming
FairPlay24 believes sports betting and casino gaming should remain a form of entertainment and should always be approached with control, awareness and personal responsibility.
Gaming involves financial risk. Sports results and casino outcomes are uncertain, and no bet, strategy, previous result or prediction can guarantee a win.
The purpose of FairPlay24 Responsible Gaming is to help users understand these risks, set sensible limits and recognise when it may be time to stop or seek additional support.
Play for Entertainment, Not as a Source of Income
FairPlay24 should be used for entertainment.
Sports betting and casino gaming should never be treated as a reliable way to earn money, recover financial losses or solve personal financial problems.
Before participating, decide how much money and time you are comfortable spending.
Only use money that you can afford to lose without affecting:
- Rent or housing costs
- Food and household expenses
- Bills
- Education costs
- Medical expenses
- Savings
- Loan repayments
- Family responsibilities
If losing the amount would create financial pressure, it should not be used for gaming.
Set a Spending Limit Before You Start
One of the most important responsible gaming habits is deciding your budget before placing a bet or playing a casino game.
Set a fixed amount and do not increase it simply because a previous result did not go your way.
A personal gaming budget should be separate from essential money.
Once your chosen limit has been reached, stop for the day or for the period you originally planned.
Do not make repeated deposits simply to continue playing after reaching your budget.
Set Time Limits
Responsible gaming is not only about money.
Time spent on sports betting or casino games should also remain under control.
Before starting a gaming session, decide how much time you want to spend.
Taking regular breaks can help you avoid making rushed decisions and can keep gaming from interfering with work, study, sleep, family time or other responsibilities.
If you regularly lose track of time while playing, consider reducing the length or frequency of your sessions.
Never Chase Losses
A loss does not create a requirement to win the money back.
Trying to recover previous losses by increasing stakes, making more deposits or playing for longer periods is known as chasing losses.
This behaviour can increase financial risk quickly.
If you lose more than expected, stop and return only if you are comfortable doing so within your original budget.
Never assume that the next match, bet or casino game will recover what was previously lost.
Understand That Outcomes Are Uncertain
Every sporting event and casino game involves uncertainty.
A team that performed well previously can still lose. A favourite can be defeated. A casino result cannot be reliably predicted from previous outcomes.
Past performance does not guarantee a future result.
Do not increase spending because you believe a win is “due” or because a previous result nearly succeeded.
Make every decision independently and within the limits you have already set.
Do Not Use Borrowed Money
FairPlay24 strongly encourages users not to borrow money for gaming.
Do not use:
- Personal loans
- Credit intended for essential expenses
- Money borrowed from friends or family
- Rent money
- Emergency savings
- Money required for household bills
Gaming with borrowed money can turn an entertainment activity into a serious financial problem.
If you are already borrowing money to continue playing, stop and review your gaming habits.
Do Not Play Under Emotional Pressure
Your emotional state can affect decision-making.
Avoid betting or playing casino games when you are:
- Angry
- Upset
- Stressed
- Tired
- Under financial pressure
- Trying to recover a previous loss
- Under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
Gaming decisions should not be used as a response to emotional distress.
If you notice that you mainly play when you are feeling low or stressed, consider taking a longer break.
Know When to Take a Break
Taking a break is a normal part of responsible gaming.
Consider stepping away if:
- You have reached your spending limit
- You are becoming frustrated
- You are making decisions faster than usual
- You are increasing stakes after losses
- Gaming is taking more time than planned
- You are hiding your gaming activity
- You are neglecting work, study or family responsibilities
A break can be for a few hours, several days or longer depending on what you need.
Where account control or restriction options are available, users can also consider using them to support a planned break.
Warning Signs of Problem Gaming
Gaming behaviour can become harmful gradually.
Pay attention if you notice any of the following:
- Spending more money than planned
- Repeatedly exceeding personal limits
- Chasing losses
- Borrowing money to continue playing
- Hiding gaming activity from family or friends
- Feeling anxious when unable to play
- Neglecting work, study or personal responsibilities
- Losing sleep because of gaming
- Increasing stakes to feel the same excitement
- Repeatedly trying to recover previous losses
- Using gaming to escape stress or personal problems
- Continuing despite financial or relationship problems
One warning sign does not automatically mean that a person has a gambling problem, but repeated signs should be taken seriously.
Keep Track of Your Gaming Activity
Regularly reviewing your activity can help you understand your habits.
Pay attention to:
- How much you deposit
- How much you withdraw
- Total losses
- How often you play
- How long each session lasts
- Whether your spending is increasing
- Whether gaming is affecting other parts of your life
Looking at your overall activity is more useful than focusing only on individual wins.
A few successful results can sometimes hide the fact that overall spending has increased.
Keep Gaming Separate From Everyday Finances
A simple way to maintain control is to keep your gaming budget separate from essential finances.
Decide in advance what amount, if any, you are comfortable spending for entertainment.
Do not move money from essential expenses simply because your gaming balance has run low.
A gaming budget should never take priority over household needs.
FairPlay24 Account Security and Responsible Use
Responsible gaming also includes protecting your FairPlay24 account.
Keep your FairPlay ID, password and OTP private.
Do not allow another person to use your account, and do not use somebody else’s account.
Account sharing can create security, payment and responsible gaming issues.
Use your own account and keep control of your own activity.
Protect Your FairPlay24 Login Details
To keep your account secure:
- Use a strong password
- Do not share your password
- Never share OTPs
- Avoid saving credentials on shared devices
- Log out after using a public or shared device
- Avoid unknown login links
- Contact FairPlay24 Support if you notice unusual account activity.
If you believe another person has accessed your account, change your password and seek account assistance.
Gaming and Alcohol
Avoid making gaming decisions while under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
Alcohol can reduce concentration and affect judgement, making it easier to exceed spending limits or make impulsive decisions.
If you have been drinking, consider waiting until you are fully alert before using sports betting or casino services.
FairPlay24 Is for Adults Only
FairPlay24 is intended only for adults who meet the applicable minimum legal age requirement.
Minors should not be allowed to create or use a FairPlay24 account.
Parents and guardians should take reasonable steps to prevent children from accessing real-money gaming services.
Useful precautions include:
- Keeping login details private
- Not saving passwords on shared devices
- Using device-level parental controls
- Keeping payment information inaccessible to minors
- Logging out when finished
- Monitoring shared devices
Protecting Minors
Children and teenagers should not have access to sports betting or casino gaming accounts.
If a device is shared within the family, do not leave a FairPlay24 account logged in.
Use secure passwords and screen locks where appropriate.
Adults should also avoid allowing minors to place bets or play games on their behalf.
Check the Rules That Apply in Your Location
Real-money gaming laws and regulations can differ between Indian states and other jurisdictions.
Before using FairPlay24, users should check the rules that apply in their own location.
Access to certain gaming services may be restricted or prohibited depending on local law.
Users are responsible for understanding whether they are legally permitted to participate.
Do Not Rely on Tips or Predictions as Guarantees
Sports analysis, statistics and predictions can provide information, but they cannot guarantee an outcome.
No tipster, prediction service, social media account or individual can reliably promise a certain result.
Be cautious of anyone claiming:
- Guaranteed winning bets
- Fixed matches
- Risk-free betting
- Certain casino results
- Guaranteed recovery of previous losses
Treat all gaming decisions as involving risk.
Casino Games and Responsible Play
Casino games should also be approached with clear limits.
Each game has its own rules and probabilities.
Previous outcomes do not make a particular future result certain.
For example, a sequence of one result does not mean that the opposite result must happen next.
Set both spending and session limits before entering the casino section.
Stop when your planned budget or time has been reached.
Sports Betting and Responsible Play
Sports knowledge does not remove financial risk.
Even experienced followers of cricket, football, tennis or other sports cannot know every result in advance.
Unexpected injuries, weather conditions, team changes and match events can affect outcomes.
Use sports betting only as entertainment and never place more money at risk because you feel especially confident about a match.
Live Betting Requires Extra Control
Live or in-play markets can change quickly.
Because decisions may need to be made faster, users can be more likely to act impulsively.
Before using live betting features:
- Set your budget first
- Avoid reacting emotionally to match events
- Do not increase stakes simply because a previous bet lost
- Take breaks between decisions
- Stop when your limit is reached
Fast-moving events should not change your original financial boundaries.
Keep Wins in Perspective
Winning can also affect behaviour.
A successful result may create a false sense that future results will be equally favourable.
Avoid dramatically increasing stakes after a win.
A win does not change the underlying uncertainty of the next sporting event or casino game.
Continue following the same limits you set before playing.
FairPlay24 Account Limits and Control Options
Users should make use of account management or responsible gaming options available to them where provided.
Depending on the features available to your account, these may help with managing spending, access or time away from gaming.
If you are unsure what account-control options are available, contact FairPlay24 Customer Support for information.
Do not wait until gaming becomes a serious problem before setting boundaries.
When to Stop Gaming
Consider stopping completely, at least temporarily, if gaming is causing:
- Financial difficulties
- Debt
- Relationship problems
- Stress or anxiety
- Problems at work
- Problems with study
- Sleep disruption
- Secrecy
- Repeated arguments
- Loss of control over spending.
The goal of responsible gaming is not to find a way to continue at any cost.
Sometimes the responsible decision is to stop.
Talk to Someone You Trust
Gaming problems can be easier to address when they are not hidden.
If you are concerned about your behaviour, consider speaking to someone you trust.
This may include:
- A family member
- A close friend
- A financial adviser
- A qualified counsellor
- A professional gambling-support organisation available in your location.
If gaming is seriously affecting your mental health, finances or relationships, professional support may be appropriate.

A Simple Responsible Gaming Checklist
Before you start, ask yourself:
Can I afford to lose the money I plan to spend?
Have I decided my limit in advance?
Am I playing for entertainment rather than income?
Am I calm and thinking clearly?
Do I have enough time without neglecting other responsibilities?
Will I stop when my limit is reached?
If the answer to any of these questions is no, consider delaying or avoiding the gaming session.
