Responsible Gambling at Bets.io: Advice for Readers in India

Cricket matches are long and markets move with every over, so Bets.io suggests fixing your stake and your time before the match starts, and asking support for self-exclusion whenever betting stops being fun.

Before the match

Decide in rupees what you can afford to lose and treat it as spending on entertainment. Do not bet when you are stressed, low or have been drinking or taking drugs or medication.

During the match

Keep to the amount you fixed, even when the game turns. Raising stakes to recover a loss usually makes it bigger. Take a pause between innings if you feel tired.

After the match

Accept the result and do something else. Borrowing to bet, hiding it from family or betting to forget problems are signs to stop; pathological gambling is a recognised illness.

Taking a break

Write to [email protected] for self-exclusion. A new account cannot be opened during it, and for a gambling problem an exclusion without an end date is advised. Only adults may play; accounts used by minors are suspended.
