At Minibet Games, we believe gaming should always be a form of entertainment, not a source of stress, harm, or financial pressure. As part of our commitment to user wellbeing, we actively promote responsible gaming practices and work to maintain a safe, fair, and age restricted environment.

2. How to Stay in Control
To help keep your gaming fun and balanced, we encourage you to:

If these patterns feel familiar, professional support is available. See section 6 for resources.
