Responsible Gambling - A Key Priority at Winwin India
Verified and updated: 20 December, 2024
Gambling is a source of entertainment for many, but it’s essential to engage responsibly to avoid potential harm. At Winwin India, we prioritize player safety, ensuring a secure environment that promotes healthy gaming habits and safeguards against problem gambling. Here’s how we implement responsible gaming practices and offer solutions for those in need.
Recognizing the Risks of Gambling for Indian Players
Problem gambling is often linked to mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, or even suicidal thoughts. It can strain relationships, disrupt careers, lead to financial ruin, or drive individuals to crime.
Key Principle: Gambling should be fun and not a means of income. When abused, it can result in harmful consequences. At Winwin, we care deeply about our users and take extensive measures to prevent such issues.
Preventing Underage Gambling in India
Winwin strictly prohibits minors from participating in any form of gambling on the platform.
- Ad-Free for Minors: Our advertisements and marketing efforts avoid targeting underage or vulnerable individuals.
- Parental Responsibility: For households sharing devices with minors, it is crucial to secure login credentials, passwords, and banking information.
We also recommend using parental control tools like NetNanny or Cyber Patrol to restrict access to gambling sites.
Age Verification Process
To comply with legal gambling age requirements (18 years or older), Winwin Indiaverifies the age of all players.
- If verification cannot confirm a player’s age, we request additional documents.
- Account access may be temporarily suspended, and funds frozen until age is verified.
By ensuring this compliance, Winwin upholds ethical standards and supports a responsible gaming environment.
Responsible Advertising Practices
Winwin’s marketing campaigns are transparent and factual. We never mislead users about the nature of gambling, its risks, or the chances of winning. Players are clearly informed of the odds and associated risks.
Assessing Gambling Habits
If you’re concerned about your gambling habits, ask yourself the following:
- Do you struggle to control your spending?
- Have you borrowed money or resorted to theft to gamble?
- Are you neglecting family or social responsibilities?
- Do you react negatively to others’ opinions about your gambling?
- Have you lost interest in hobbies or leisure activities?
- Are you experiencing depression or suicidal thoughts after losses?
- Do you lie about the time or money spent gambling?
If you answer “yes” to most of these questions, it might be time to address potential gambling issues.
Tips for Responsible Gambling in India
Winwin provides guidelines to help players manage their gambling habits effectively:
- Treat gambling as entertainment, not a source of income.
- Set strict limits on time and money spent on gambling.
- Only gamble with funds you can afford to lose.
- Avoid chasing losses—it often leads to more financial trouble.
- Never gamble under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or during emotional distress.
Self-Exclusion Options for Indian Players
For players needing to take a break, Winwin offers a self-exclusion program, which allows individuals to restrict their access to the platform for specific periods:
- Periods Available: 1 month, 6 months, or 1 year.
- Verification Required: Users must provide photo identification to activate self-exclusion.
- Account Status: During this period, accounts are inaccessible until the chosen timeframe expires.
Upon completion, players can resume activities or request to extend their self-exclusion period.
Account Restrictions and Support
Winwin allows players to set personal betting limits. These limits can be adjusted anytime, but changes take effect after 24 hours to promote thoughtful decisions.
Players are also advised against creating new accounts during self-exclusion. Winwin is not liable for continued gambling on newly created accounts during this period.

Acknowledging a gambling problem is the first step toward recovery. If you need assistance, Winwin’s support team is always available to help you explore options like account restrictions or referrals to professional support organizations.
