Responsible Gambling | Spin City Online Casino Canada
Last updated: 2026-04-29
Spin City Online Casino Canada is committed to promoting safe, responsible play. Gambling should always be entertainment — never a way to earn money, escape problems, or recover losses. This page outlines the warning signs of problem gambling, the tools available to stay in control, and the Canadian organisations that provide free, confidential help.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Common warning signs include:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than you intended;
- Chasing losses by increasing bet sizes or playing longer;
- Hiding gambling activity from family or friends;
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund play;
- Feeling restless or irritable when not gambling;
- Gambling interfering with work, sleep, relationships, or finances;
- Failing repeatedly to cut back or quit despite wanting to.
If any of these resonate, please reach out to one of the helplines below.
Self-Assessment
The Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI) is a free, confidential 9-question screening tool used across Canada. You can take it on the Responsible Gambling Council website.
Tools to Stay in Control
Spin City Casino offers built-in responsible-gambling controls in your account settings:
- Deposit limits — cap how much you can deposit per day, week, or month;
- Loss limits — set a maximum allowable loss over a defined period;
- Wager limits — cap your total stake amount in a session;
- Session timers — receive reminders after a set period of play;
- Reality checks — periodic on-screen prompts showing time and money spent;
- Time-out / cool-off — pause your account for 24 hours up to 6 weeks;
- Self-exclusion — close your account for 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanently.
To activate any tool, log in, open Account Settings → Responsible Gambling, or contact support@spincity-casi.it.com. Limit changes that reduce your exposure take effect immediately; increases require a 24-hour cooling-off period.
