Responsible Gaming

At 3d-mfm.org, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices. Betting should be enjoyed as entertainment only – never as a way to make money or solve financial problems.

Age Verification

We are legally required to ensure all users are at least 18 years of age or the legal gambling age in their jurisdiction. Gambling is not permitted for anyone under this age. If you are underage, we urge you not to use betting platforms.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognize any of the following behaviours in yourself or others, problem gambling may be developing:

• Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Lying to family or friends about gambling activities
• Spending increasing amounts of time and money on gambling
• Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or guilty about gambling
• Using gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or depression
• Failed attempts to cut down or stop gambling
• Borrowing money to gamble
• Experiencing relationship or financial problems because of gambling

Self-Help Tools

Most reputable betting operators offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders about how long you have been gambling
• Time-Out: Take a break from gambling for a set period
• Self-Exclusion: Exclude yourself from betting platforms for a defined period

Use these tools proactively to ensure gambling remains enjoyable and within your control.
