Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At Preferred Pet Partners, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gaming, including the Wheel Out game, should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. It is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please play responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
In India, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age for gaming in your state) to participate in gaming activities. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to verify your identity and age at any time. If you are under the legal age, please do not participate.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Please be aware of these warning signs that may indicate a developing gambling problem:
- Spending more money or time gaming than intended
- Chasing losses by continuing to play to recover money lost
- Lying to family or friends about gaming activities or spending
- Neglecting work, family, education, or personal relationships due to gaming
- Using gaming as a way to escape problems or negative emotions
- Experiencing anxiety, depression, or irritability when not gaming
- Borrowing money or going into debt to finance gaming
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gaming
- Feeling a need to increase stakes or bets for excitement
If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone else, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Most responsible gaming platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to spend in a specific time period
- Loss Limits: Define a maximum amount you are willing to lose
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you have been playing and how much you have spent
- Self-Exclusion: Take a break from gaming by temporarily or permanently excluding yourself from your account
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gaming entirely
We encourage you to use these tools as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
