Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At Sweet Pea Quilting, we are committed to promoting responsible sports betting. Sports betting should be enjoyed as entertainment only—never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you choose to participate in sports betting, please do so responsibly and within your means.

Age Verification

Sports betting in Canada is available only to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your province). We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age. By accessing our affiliate content, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please review the following checklist. If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:

• Spending more money or time gambling than intended
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount wagered
• Neglecting family, work, school, or other responsibilities due to gambling
• Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling
• Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
• Gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
• Damaged relationships due to gambling behavior
• Financial difficulties or debt resulting from gambling

Self-Help Tools and Resources

Most regulated sportsbooks offer built-in tools to help you maintain control over your gambling. Consider using:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe
• Loss Limits: Cap the amount you're willing to lose during a session or week
• Bet Limits: Restrict the size of individual wagers
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you've been gambling and how much you've wagered
• Time-Out: Take a voluntary break from gambling for a set period
• Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily ban yourself from accessing sportsbooks for weeks, months, or years

We encourage you to explore these tools and use them proactively.
