Core principles
Keep wellbeing ahead of gambling
Gambling can affect finances, mood and relationships. Asking for support early can help you stay in control.
Protect essential spending
Keep rent, food, bills and savings separate from money for gambling.
Talk to someone you trust
A trusted person or support organisation can help you pause and consider your next step.
A clear reality check
Understand the risks before playing
- Gambling is not a dependable way to earn an income.
- Trying to recover losses can lead to further spending.
- Borrowing, hiding gambling or using essential money are signs to stop.
- Bonuses and free spins have conditions and do not remove the risk of losing.
Swiss players should check the applicable rules and use responsible-gambling controls before playing. Swiss gambling information.
Spending boundaries
Set money limits and protect essentials
Decide your limit first
Use deposit controls offered in your account and treat every limit as a ceiling, not a target.
- Keep essential money safe and never borrow for gambling.

WSM Casino responsible gambling for Switzerland
Play within clear boundaries
WSM Casino responsible gambling starts with deciding what you can afford before playing. Gambling should be entertainment, not a way to pay bills, repay debts or increase income. Keep money for rent, food, transport and other essentials away from gambling.
Choose a personal spending limit and time limit before opening slots, live casino games, crash games or sports betting. Never raise a limit to chase losses. If gambling affects sleep, finances or relationships, stop and seek support.
- Choose a deposit limit that fits your disposable budget.
- Set a time limit and stop when it ends.
- Avoid gambling when upset, tired or affected by alcohol.
- Keep household essentials separate from gambling funds.
- Treat promotional terms as conditions, not guaranteed winnings.
WSM Casino safer gambling tools
Available safer gambling tools include deposit limits, time limits and self-exclusion. Set them before playing and review whether they still suit you. If you cannot keep to a limit, stop rather than increasing it.
The current welcome offer is a 200% bonus on the first deposit plus 50 free spins. Wagering is 40x the bonus amount and the offer is valid for 7 days. Check the cashier and current terms for amounts before opting in.
WSM Casino self exclusion
Use the available self-exclusion controls or email [email protected] to request help. Do not open another account or ask someone else to gamble for you while a restriction applies.
For a broader restriction in Switzerland, ask ESBK, the Eidgenössische Spielbankenkommission, about Spielsperre. A casino restriction and a Swiss Spielsperre can follow different processes.
Take a break and notice risk
Log out, remove gambling shortcuts and silence promotional messages where possible. Choose another activity and ask a trusted person to help if stopping alone feels difficult.
Warning signs include secrecy, borrowing, chasing losses, difficulty stopping and neglecting work or relationships. Repeatedly exceeding limits is a reason to stop and seek professional help. Identity and address verification may be required before betting or withdrawals, but it does not replace personal limits.
