Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Projet Leviathan, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Gambling is not a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. It should never be viewed as an investment or a reliable income source. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
In Canada, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age in your province) to participate in online gambling at Stake Canada. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and maintaining strict age verification protocols.
If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not use this site.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do any of these warning signs apply to you? If so, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Gambling with money meant for bills, rent, food, or other necessities
- Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or loved ones
- Gambling for longer periods or with larger amounts than intended
- Feeling anxious or irritable when trying to reduce or stop gambling
- Neglecting work, school, family, or social obligations due to gambling
- Borrowing money or going into debt to finance gambling
- Lying about the time or money spent gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Failed attempts to control, cut back, or stop gambling
Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features
Stake Canada offers several built-in tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a set period
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic session duration limits to encourage responsible play
