Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At MS Global Logistics, we are committed to promoting responsible sports betting. Sports betting should be enjoyed as entertainment only—never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to bet within their means and to view any money wagered as the cost of entertainment, similar to going to a movie or concert.
If you find that gambling is affecting your life negatively, help is available. Please reach out to one of the support organizations listed below.
Age Verification
Sports betting in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (19+ in some provinces). It is illegal for minors to participate in gambling activities. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
If you are under the legal gambling age in your province, please do not use our services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Review the following warning signs and seek help if any apply to you:
- Chasing losses by betting more money to recover what you've lost
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the extent of your betting
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Borrowing money or going into debt to finance gambling
- Neglecting family, work, school, or other important responsibilities
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Gambling with money needed for essentials like rent, food, or utilities
- Experiencing mood swings or depression related to gambling outcomes
Self-Help Tools
Many reputable sportsbooks and betting platforms offer tools to help you maintain control. Consider using the following features:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Cap the amount of money you're willing to lose during a set timeframe
- Reality Checks: Enable notifications that remind you how long you've been betting and how much you've wagered
- Betting Limits: Set maximum stake amounts on individual bets
- Time-Out/Cool-Off Period: Take a break from betting for a set period without closing your account
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from betting platforms for an extended period (typically 6 months to multiple years)
Speak with your sportsbook provider about which tools are available to you.
