Safe and Responsible Gaming

Responsible Gaming at potoja — Your Protection is Our Commitment

Gaming is for entertainment, not addiction. potoja gives you all the tools to play consciously and in control — because your wellbeing is our highest priority.

Safe Gaming

Why is Responsible Gaming Important?

Online gaming can be an enjoyable experience, but playing without limits can have a negative impact on your personal, family, and financial life. potoja believes that responsible gaming is not just a policy — it is a commitment to every one of our players. We always want to make sure that gaming on our platform is purely for entertainment and that no one is exposed to financial or mental harm.

By following our responsible gaming guidelines, you can create a safe and enjoyable gaming environment for yourself. Remember — winning and losing are always possible. Set a budget, manage your time, and take a break when you need to.

For Ages 21 and Over Only

potoja strictly enforces a 21+ age limit. Identity is verified during registration and accounts belonging to minors are closed immediately. If you see a minor using our platform, please notify our live chat support right away.

Our Protection Tools

Set a Deposit Limit

You can set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once set, the limit takes effect immediately. Raising the limit requires a 7-day waiting period, but lowering it changes right away. This is the most effective way to manage your budget.

Set a Loss Limit

Set a cap on how much you can lose within a specific period. Once you reach the set amount, gaming will stop automatically. This protects you from unexpected financial loss and is an important part of budget planning.

Session Time Limit

You can set a maximum duration for each gaming session. When the set time is up, you will receive a warning and, if needed, you will be logged out automatically. This is highly effective for avoiding long uninterrupted gaming sessions.

Break and Cooling-Off Period

Need a little rest? Set a cooling-off period ranging from 1 day to 6 weeks. During this time, betting on your account will be paused, but you can still log in to view your balance or make withdrawals. Use this feature whenever you feel stressed or fatigued.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel gaming is getting out of control, you can close your account for a set period or permanently. Once self-exclusion is activated, it will not be possible to play again before the period ends. This is a courageous and responsible step.

Reality Check Reminders

Pop-up messages at regular intervals remind you how long you have been playing and how much you have won or lost. These reminders keep you grounded in reality and help you make conscious decisions.

Signs of Problem Gambling

If any of the signs below apply to you, please contact our support team or take a break. Acknowledging a problem is the first step toward solving it.

Responsible gaming means keeping gaming as a small form of entertainment in your life — not letting it take priority over paying bills, family needs, or any other obligations.

  • Feeling a strong urge to keep betting in order to recover money you have lost.
  • Being unable to stop playing even after going over your budget.
  • Lying to family or friends about gaming or playing in secret.
  • Neglecting everyday responsibilities such as work, studies, or family time.
  • Feeling restless, anxious, or irritable when you stop gaming.
  • Taking on debt or breaking into savings to place bets.
  • Being unable to find enjoyment or relaxation without gaming.

Smart Gaming Tips

Playing responsibly means keeping gaming within the natural rhythm of your life. Here are some practical tips:

  • Set a budget in advance and never deposit more than that amount.
  • Do not place more bets trying to recover lost money — this is the most risky habit.
  • Avoid playing when you are tired, stressed, or have been drinking.
  • Think of gaming as entertainment, not as a way to earn money.
  • Keep a set time limit for each session and take breaks in between.
  • Spend time with family and friends — do not let gaming pull you away from your relationships.

If there are minors in your household, take the following steps:

  • Never share your potoja login details with anyone, especially minors.

Questions and Answers about Responsible Gaming

The minimum age to play at potoja is 21. We verify age during registration and any account belonging to someone under 21 is closed immediately. This is an integral part of our responsible gaming policy.

After logging in, go to your profile settings and find the "Responsible Gaming" option. From there you can set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. The limit takes effect immediately. If you run into any issues, let us know via our 24/7 live chat support.

When you activate self-exclusion, betting and new deposits on your account will be stopped. You can use this feature for a set period (such as 3 months, 6 months, 1 year) or permanently. Your account will not be reactivated automatically before the period ends. However, you can log in to view your balance and make withdrawals.

You will receive a warning shortly before your set session time runs out. Once the time is up, the game will close and you will be notified. To start a new session you will need to log in again and reconfirm the session limit.

First, thank you for acknowledging the problem — that takes courage. Contact our 24/7 live chat right away or email us at [email protected]. Our team will help you activate self-exclusion, close your account, and get the support you need. Your information will remain completely confidential.

Yes, there is an important difference. Lowering a deposit limit takes effect immediately — it applies quickly because it is there to protect you. Raising a limit, however, involves a waiting period (a cooling-off period, typically 7 days). This policy ensures that limits cannot be raised on an impulse.

A cooling-off is a temporary break (1 day to 6 weeks) during which betting is paused but the account stays active. Self-exclusion is a longer-term measure (3 months to permanent) where the account cannot be reactivated until the period is over. For serious problems, self-exclusion is the right choice.
