Responsible Gaming
Gambling on Fairplay should be a form of entertainment, not a source of income or a way to recover money. Never bet more than you can afford to lose. Set limits before you start and treat any loss as the cost of your entertainment.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years old, or the legal gambling age of your state or union territory in India, to access this website and participate in any betting activity. Underage gambling is illegal and strictly prohibited. We may ask for proof of age and identity at any time.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
You might need to pause and seek help if you recognise one or more of these signs:
- Chasing losses by betting more to win back money
- Hiding your gambling from family, friends, or colleagues
- Spending more time or money on gambling than you planned
- Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund gambling
- Neglecting work, studies, or relationships because of gambling
- Feeling restless, irritable, or anxious when trying to cut down
- Lying about how much you gamble or how often you lose
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or low mood

- Session time limits — set a maximum duration for each gambling session
