Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At amfresh.ca, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Online betting should be enjoyed as entertainment only — never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you choose to participate in online betting, please do so responsibly and within your means.

Age Verification

Online betting in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your province). We strictly verify the age of all users during account registration and reserve the right to suspend accounts that do not meet these requirements.

If you are under the legal age for gambling in your jurisdiction, please do not register or attempt to place bets on our platform.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be aware of the following warning signs:

• Spending more time or money on betting than intended
• Continuing to bet even after losing money (chasing losses)
• Feeling the need to bet with increasing amounts to achieve the same excitement
• Becoming anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
• Hiding gambling activities from family, friends, or healthcare providers
• Using betting as an escape from stress, anxiety, depression, or other emotional problems
• Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
• Neglecting work, school, relationships, or other responsibilities due to gambling
• Lying about the extent or nature of your gambling activities
• Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling

If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
