Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

At Parimatch, we believe that online gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment. It is important to understand that gambling should never be viewed as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always gamble only with money you can afford to lose, and set strict limits on both time and expenditure.

Age Verification & Legal Requirements

Parimatch is strictly for users aged 18 years and above, or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction in India. By accessing our platform, you confirm that you meet this age requirement. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and maintain strict verification procedures.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Please be aware of the following warning signs that may indicate problem gambling:

  • Chasing Losses: Attempting to recover lost money by gambling more
  • Hiding Gambling Activity: Concealing the extent of your gambling from family or friends
  • Loss of Control: Being unable to stop or reduce gaming sessions
  • Gambling with Money Needed for Essentials: Using funds meant for bills, rent, or food
  • Neglecting Responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family obligations
  • Increased Time and Money: Needing to spend more time and money to achieve the same excitement
  • Mood Changes: Becoming irritable or anxious when unable to gamble
  • Financial Problems: Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
  • Jeopardized Relationships: Gambling causing conflict with loved ones

If you experience any of these signs, it is crucial to seek help immediately.
