Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Lantern Resto, we believe that casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While we offer exciting gaming opportunities, it's important to approach them responsibly and within your means.

Please gamble only with money you can afford to lose, and set strict limits on both time and spending before you begin playing.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age of majority in your province) to access and use gaming services. By using this website, you confirm that you meet this age requirement.

If you are under the legal age for gaming in your province, please do not proceed. Gaming is strictly prohibited for minors.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately:

• Spending more money or time gaming than intended
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount of time/money spent
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
• Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
• Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
• Neglecting work, school, family, or personal relationships due to gambling
• Failed attempts to reduce or control gambling
• Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
• Feeling that gambling is the only way to solve problems

Self-Help Tools & Controls

Most responsible gaming platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Establish a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a gaming session
• Time Limits: Set automatic session timeouts to prevent extended gaming periods
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you've been gaming and how much you've spent
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing gaming platforms

Take advantage of these tools to keep your gaming experience safe and enjoyable. If you're unsure how to access these features on your gaming platform, contact customer support.
