Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At Orange Monkey Music, we believe that online casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling should never be viewed as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. The house always has a mathematical edge, and you should only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
Please play responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age or older (or the legal age for gaming in your province) to access and use any Interac casino featured on this website. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and comply with all Canadian provincial gaming regulations.
If you are under the legal age, please do not proceed with gambling activities.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do any of these warning signs apply to you? If so, please seek help immediately:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Hiding or lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, food, utilities)
- Neglecting family, work, school, or social responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Unable to stop or control your gambling despite trying
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Gambling to escape negative emotions or problems
- Gradually increasing the amount wagered to achieve the same excitement
- Loss of interest in hobbies and activities you once enjoyed
Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features
Most reputable Interac casinos offer the following tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit over a specific period (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Loss Limits: Cap the maximum amount you're willing to lose in a session or over time
- Reality Checks: Receive reminders during gaming sessions about how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing gambling sites
- Time-Out Periods: Take a break from gambling for a set duration
- Account Cooling-Off: Request a period where your account is suspended before you can access it again
We strongly recommend using these tools to maintain healthy gambling habits.
