Responsible Gaming at King Billy Casino South Africa

Account Control Tools

Players access multiple self-management features through account settings. Deposit limits restrict daily, weekly, or monthly funding amounts—once set, increases require 24-hour cooling period before activation. Loss limits prevent excessive losses within specified timeframes; reaching the threshold blocks further gameplay until the period resets.

Session time reminders alert you after continuous play exceeds preset durations. Reality checks display elapsed time and net win/loss every 30, 60, or 90 minutes based on your preference. Temporary timeout suspends account access for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days—useful for short breaks without permanent closure. These controls activate immediately through the responsible gaming dashboard in your account profile.

Self-Exclusion Options

Self-exclusion permanently closes your account for minimum 6 months up to 5 years. During exclusion, you cannot access the platform, receive marketing communications, or create new accounts. The operator blocks attempts to circumvent exclusion through duplicate registrations using different details.

South African players can register with the National Gambling Board's National Central Electronic Exclusion Register (NCEER) for nationwide self-exclusion across all licensed venues and operators. Contact the National Responsible Gambling Programme at 0800 006 008 for NCEER registration assistance. King Billy honours all NCEER exclusions and verifies player status during account verification processes.

Recognizing Problem Gambling

Warning signs include gambling with money intended for bills or essentials, borrowing funds specifically to gamble, neglecting work or family responsibilities due to gaming sessions, and feeling anxious or irritable when unable to play. Chasing losses by increasing bet sizes or playing longer than planned also indicates developing issues. If you recognize these patterns, use account controls immediately or contact support for assistance with self-exclusion.
