Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At Consume With Care, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, similar to going to the movies or dining out. It should never be considered as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Gambling is only legal for individuals who are 18 years of age or older in Malaysia. We are committed to preventing underage gambling. If you are under 18, please do not engage in any gambling activities on this website or any other platform.
By accessing our site, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and meet all local legal requirements for gambling in your jurisdiction.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a gambling problem:
- ☐ Chasing losses by gambling more to win back money you've lost
- ☐ Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount of time/money spent gambling
- ☐ Neglecting family, work, school, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- ☐ Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce or stop gambling
- ☐ Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
- ☐ Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling activities
- ☐ Continued gambling despite negative consequences (financial loss, relationship problems)
- ☐ Failed attempts to control or reduce gambling
- ☐ Using gambling to escape problems or cope with negative emotions
If you've checked any of these boxes, please reach out to a support organization immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features
Many gambling platforms offer tools to help you maintain control. Consider using:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit in a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
- Loss Limits: Establish a limit on how much you're willing to lose during a gaming session.
- Reality Checks: Enable pop-up reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered.
- Time-Out/Break: Take a cooling-off period away from gambling to reassess your habits.
