PLAY RESPONSIBLY

We are committed to ensuring that you enjoy your gaming experience on First Games while remaining fully aware of the social and financial effects associated with excessive gaming. We offer and promote our skill games as an enjoyable entertainment activity and believe that gaming can remain this way only if you play responsibly and stay in control.
If you choose to play on our Platform, there are some general guidelines that can help make your playing experience safer, and reduce the risk that problems associated with excessive gaming can occur:

1. Play for entertainment, and not as a way of making money.
2. Play only with money that you can afford to lose.
   Never play with money that you need for important or essential things such as food, rent, bills, or tuition.
3. Decide in advance how much money and time you will spend playing on the Platform for a particular session and stick to that limit regardless of your performance.
4. Never chase losses. If you lose money, don’t play higher stakes to try and recoup your losses. Not winning is a part of gaming. Don’t assume that you can earn back the money you have already lost. KNOW WHEN TO STOP.
5. Don’t play when you are upset, tired, or depressed. It is difficult to make good decisions when you are feeling down.
6. Do not put of personal and other important tasks in order to play. Complete all your important tasks so that you can play with a free and calm mind.
7. Balance your playing with other activities. Find other forms of entertainment so playing does not become too big a part of your life. 
8. Only participate in games that are commensurate with your competence level and financial capabilities. Do not get tempted to participate in high stakes contests despite winning consistently.
9. Do not borrow money in order to play.
10. Avoid using all of the money deposited by you in a single game.
11. Take time outs and breaks regularly regardless of your performance and especially if you have lost continuously.
12. We offer a self-exclusion facility to help you if you feel that your gaming is affecting you negatively and you want assistance to help stop. At your request, we will prevent you from using your account for a specific period, as determined by you.
13. Should you wish to self-exclude yourself from using your account, you may contact our Support Page to request this. You will receive an email from the Support Team upon the self-exclusion request being operationalised on your User Account.
14. Once the period has lapsed, your account will be reopened. Please note that any self-exclusion request granted is irreversible for the duration of the time for which it was originally operationalised.
15. Entering into self-exclusion is a joint commitment from us and you. We will take reasonable steps to prevent you re-opening your account or opening new accounts with us. However, during the period of your exclusion, you must not attempt to re-open your account or to try and open new accounts on our Platform.
