Deposit limits, self-exclusion, reality checks and where to get free confidential help in South Africa.
Gambling should stay entertainment. These are the tools SABETS provides — and the free national support that exists — to keep it that way.
A deposit limit caps how much you can load in a day, week or month. Set it while you are thinking clearly, and the platform enforces it when you are not. You can lower a limit instantly; raises take effect after a cooling-off period.
If play stops being fun, you can exclude yourself for a fixed period. During exclusion you cannot log in, deposit or receive marketing. Exclusion is one-way: it cannot be lifted early, which is the point.
The National Responsible Gambling Programme offers free counselling: call 0800 006 008. It is confidential and staffed by professionals, and it exists precisely for this.
SABETS is an 18+ platform. Age checks are part of registration, and accounts that misstate identity are closed.
