Betting is a paid form of entertainment, and most bets lose over time. This site is for adults aged 18 and over. Under-18s must not gamble, and local law may set a higher age or forbid the activity altogether.
Limits worth setting before you start
- Money: pick a weekly amount you could lose without it touching rent, bills or debt repayments. Treat it as spent.
- Time: decide when you will stop. Late matches make this harder, so decide before kick-off.
- Stakes: fix them in advance, and don't raise them after a loss.
- Wallets: keep betting funds in a separate wallet from savings. With crypto it is easy to forget that a number on a screen is real money.
- Sober betting: don't bet when drunk, angry, or trying to cheer yourself up.
Warning signs
- You chase losses, or bet to win back what you lost yesterday.
- You set alarms for matches you don't care about, because you have money on them.
- You borrow, sell things or use money meant for something else.
- You hide how much you bet from people close to you.
- You feel restless or irritable when you try to cut down.
- Bonuses or cashback are your reason for making another deposit.
One or two of these is enough of a reason to take a break and talk to someone.
Taking a break or stopping
Look in your account settings and in the operator's terms for limits or self-exclusion options, and contact Dexsport support to ask for your account to be closed or restricted if you can't find them. Say clearly that the request is for gambling-related reasons. Then remove the shortcuts from your phone, and consider gambling-blocking software on your devices. Crypto makes spending fast, so moving funds out of reach helps too: ask someone you trust to hold them if needed.
Where to get help in Singapore
The National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) provides information on problem gambling, on help available and on exclusion measures for people affected and their families. The National Addictions Management Service (NAMS) offers professional treatment for addictions, including gambling. Gamblers Anonymous runs peer support groups in many countries. Look up their current contact details on their official websites.
If you are worried about someone else, you can contact these services too. Start with a calm conversation about what you have noticed, without lecturing. If anyone is in immediate danger, call emergency services.
