Responsible Gambling at Instant Casino

At Instant Casino we want every session to be an enjoyable experience. For the vast majority of players, online gambling is exactly that: a form of entertainment, no different in principle from watching a film or following a sports season. But we also know that for some people gambling can gradually shift from leisure into something that causes real harm, affecting finances, relationships, and wellbeing.

That is why we have built a set of practical tools that help you stay in control, and why we encourage every player in Norway to use them. Setting limits costs nothing and takes less than a minute. This page explains what tools are available, what warning signs to look out for, and where to find support if you or someone you know needs it.

All of the following tools are available to every registered player. Most can be activated directly through your account settings; others can be set up immediately by contacting our support team via live chat. Changes that make your limits stricter always take effect immediately. Requests to relax a limit, such as raising a deposit cap, are subject to a cooling-off period of 24 to 72 hours to give you time to reconsider.

To activate any of the tools above, go to your account settings or contact us via live chat at any time. Our support team treats all responsible gambling requests with full discretion and processes them as a priority. There is no judgement involved: using these tools is exactly what they are there for.

Gambling problems rarely appear suddenly. They tend to develop gradually, and many people do not recognise the pattern until it has become entrenched. Being aware of the warning signs, in yourself or in someone close to you, is the first step towards addressing them.

• Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose, including funds set aside for rent, bills, food, or other essential expenses.
• Chasing losses by depositing more in an attempt to recover what you have already lost.
• Thinking about gambling frequently when you are not playing, planning your next session, or feeling restless or irritable when you cannot gamble.
• Concealing gambling activity from family members, friends, or colleagues.
• Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling.
• Failed attempts to cut back or stop despite wanting to.
• Gambling affecting work, study, or important relationships in a negative way.
• Using gambling as a way to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or other difficult feelings.

Recognising one or more of these patterns does not mean the situation is hopeless. It means the right moment to take action has arrived. Reaching out, whether to a support service, a trusted person, or to us directly, is always the right move.

Several free, confidential support services are available to players in Norway. Whether you are concerned about your own gambling or about someone else, the organisations below can provide guidance, counselling, and practical help.

Lotteritilsynet is the Norwegian government authority responsible for overseeing the gambling sector. Their website includes information on player rights, complaint procedures, and responsible gambling resources relevant to players in Norway.

You can also come directly to us. Our support team can set up self-exclusion, deposit limits, or any other restriction on your account immediately via live chat. Every request is handled confidentially and treated as a priority regardless of the time of day.

Instant Casino is strictly for players aged 18 and over. We do not permit minors to register, deposit, or play on the platform under any circumstances. If we have reason to believe an account belongs to someone under the legal age, the account is closed immediately and all associated transactions are reversed.

If you share a household with children or teenagers, we recommend using parental control software on any device they have access to. Tools such as Net Nanny, Qustodio, or the built-in parental controls on iOS and Android can be configured to block access to gambling websites. Beyond software, always log out of your Instant Casino account on shared devices and make sure your login credentials are not visible or accessible to anyone else in your home.

If you are aware of a minor attempting to access online gambling services, please contact us immediately so we can take appropriate action. Keeping gambling away from young people is a responsibility we take seriously, and we appreciate the help of every adult player in doing so.
