Gambling Limits
Set deposit and time limits through GameSense so your play stays planned and within your budget.

1. Why limits help
Deciding in advance how much money and time you want to spend is one of the most effective ways to keep gambling enjoyable. A limit you set calmly protects you from in-the-moment decisions and makes it easier to treat play as entertainment with a planned cost, not a way to chase losses. GameSense limits are free, private and entirely your choice, and you are encouraged to set a deposit limit when you register.

2. Deposit limits
From your account you can set a maximum amount you are able to deposit per day, per week or per month. Once a deposit limit is reached, you cannot add more funds until the period resets. You can combine periods — for example a smaller daily cap within a larger monthly cap — to match the budget that works for you. All amounts are in Canadian dollars (CAD).

3. Time and session limits and reality checks
You can set a daily time or session limit that signs you out or blocks new play once your budget is used up, and you can turn on reality-check reminders that show how long you have been playing. These tools help you stay aware of time, take regular breaks, and keep gambling balanced with the rest of your day.

4. Lowering and raising a limit
Lowering a limit, or making it stricter, takes effect immediately. Raising or removing a limit takes effect only after a waiting period, so a decision made in the moment cannot override one you made calmly. This waiting period is a deliberate safeguard and gives you time to be sure the change is right for you.

5. Manage your limits
You can review and change your limits at any time in the limits section of your account. If you need help setting them up, our Customer Support team can guide you at 1-866-815-0222 or support@lottobcmobile.co, and you can also explore taking a break or Game Break (Voluntary Self-Exclusion) if you want a stronger pause.
