Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Conservation Klondike, we believe that online gaming through Interac casinos should be an enjoyable form of entertainment—never a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Gaming outcomes are determined by chance, and the house always has a mathematical advantage. Please only wager money you can afford to lose.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your province) to access and use Interac casino services. Conservation Klondike is committed to preventing underage gambling. By accessing our site, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Do you recognize any of these warning signs in yourself or someone you know?

• Chasing Losses: Attempting to recover lost money by gambling more
• Hiding Gambling Activity: Concealing the extent or frequency of gaming from friends and family
• Increased Spending: Needing to wager larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
• Loss of Control: Being unable to stop or limit gaming sessions
• Neglected Responsibilities: Prioritizing gambling over work, school, family, or personal obligations
• Financial Strain: Borrowing money or experiencing debt due to gambling
• Emotional Reliance: Using gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or negative emotions
• Failed Attempts to Quit: Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or stop gambling
• Restlessness or Irritability: Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble

If you recognize these signs, it's time to seek support.

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features

Most reputable Interac casinos offer built-in tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you can deposit
• Loss Limits: Establish maximum loss thresholds before automatic account restrictions trigger
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders during gaming sessions about time and money spent
• Session Time Limits: Set automatic session timeouts to prevent extended play
• Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from casino access for a specified period
• Account Closure: Permanently close your account if needed

We recommend using these tools proactively, regardless of your current gaming habits.
