Responsible Gambling at YesBet
At YesBet, protecting our players comes first. We firmly believe that gambling should be entertainment above all and must never become a burden. That is why we actively promote responsible gambling and provide numerous tools to help you keep your gambling under control at all times.
Controlled gambling means making conscious decisions, knowing your own limits and sticking to them consistently. YesBet supports you with comprehensive protective measures and transparent information.
Our measures for your protection
YesBet offers you a range of tools with which you can actively manage your gambling. These features are available to all registered users at any time.
Deposit limits
Set daily, weekly or monthly deposit limits. This lets you decide in advance the maximum amount of money you want to deposit into your player account. An increase to the limit only takes effect after a cooling-off period of at least 24 hours, while a reduction takes effect immediately.
Loss limits
With loss limits you define the maximum amount you are allowed to lose within a certain period. Once this limit is reached, you cannot place any further bets until the set period has elapsed.
Session limits
Set time limits for your gaming sessions. When the set time limit is reached, you are notified automatically and can decide whether you want to end the session.
Self-exclusion
If you need a break from gambling, YesBet offers you the option of self-exclusion. You can choose between a temporary block (e.g. 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days) and a permanent block. During the exclusion period you have no access to your account and cannot place any bets. You can also register with BetStop, Australia's National Self-Exclusion Register, to exclude yourself from all licensed Australian online gambling services.
Reality check
Activate the reality check to receive reminders at regular intervals. These show you how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered. This way you always keep track of your gambling.
Signs of gambling addiction
Gambling addiction can develop gradually. It is important to recognise the warning signs early. The following signs may indicate problematic gambling behaviour:
- You gamble with money that is actually intended for other purposes.
- You try to recover losses by continuing to gamble.
- You neglect work, family or social contacts because of gambling.
- You lie about your gambling or hide losses.
- You feel restless or irritable when you cannot gamble.
- You constantly increase your bets to feel the same thrill.
Self-assessment questions
Ask yourself honestly: Do you gamble more often or for longer than planned? Have you tried to stop gambling but did not manage to? Is your gambling straining your financial situation or your relationships? If you answer yes to one or more of these questions, we strongly recommend that you seek professional help.

You are not alone. There are numerous services that can help you confidentially and free of charge:
