Singapore Pools takes a strong Play Responsibly stand. We wish our customers to have some fun playing our games. We also wish it is just a little flutter. It should not adversely affect your finances or lifestyle.
If you are under 18 years of age, please do not play our games. Our game rules clearly state that no person under the age of 18 years shall be allowed to purchase a ticket or to claim any prize.

Here are some tips on how to play responsibly:
- Play within your means. Set yourself a budget and stick to it. Stop playing if you exceed that limit.
- Play on with the amount you can afford; do not borrow money to bet.
- Never spend more to win back losses.
- Do not be pressurized or influenced by others to bet. Betting should be your own choice.
- Stop playing if you think you are beginning to spend more money and playing more frequently.

When Not to Gamble
When you are emotionally affected, betting may seem like an attractive distraction. However, you are also more susceptible to playing beyond your control. Do not gamble:
- When feeling lonely, depressed or under stress
- When coping with the death or loss of a loved one
- When trying to solve a personal or family problem
Remember, your loved ones will suffer too if your playing affects your family lifestyle and finances. Do not let yourself and your loved ones become casualties of gambling. |

Do not let it control you or your life instead. |
