Responsible Play Guide

This website serves as an independent informational resource. We promote awareness and encourage adults (18+) to participate in number-based games responsibly and within personal limits.

• Key Principles for Responsible Participation

• • 1. Set a Budget

  • Engage in number draws only with funds set aside for leisure or discretionary purposes. Avoid using money required for essential needs such as rent, utilities, or groceries.

  • 2. Track Your Time

  • Be aware of how much time you spend reviewing results, exploring draws, or making selections. Participation should always remain a casual and balanced activity that does not interfere with personal, professional, or family responsibilities.

  • 3. Understand the Nature of Outcomes

  • All number draws are based on random selection. There are no systems, formulas, or patterns that can guarantee a specific outcome. Participation should be viewed as a form of entertainment rather than a way to generate income.

  • 4. Know When to Take a Break

  • If you notice feelings of frustration, stress, or the urge to recover losses, it may be time to pause. Responsible play includes recognizing personal limits and seeking balance.

• Support and Resources

• • If you or someone you know is having difficulty maintaining control over participation in number-based activities, free and confidential help is available.

  • National Problem Play Helpline (Canada)

  • A confidential and accessible resource providing guidance and support across provinces.
