Responsible Gaming at Boomtown Casino Fort McMurray

At Boomtown Casino Fort McMurray, we take responsible gaming seriously. We understand that problem gambling can have serious consequences for individuals and families, and we are committed to providing our patrons with the tools and resources they need to make informed choices about their gaming habits.

Tools for Responsible Gaming

• Deposit Limits: Set limits on how much you want to deposit into your casino account. This limit will be in place for a set period of time (daily, weekly or monthly) and can help prevent overspending.
• Loss Limits: Set limits on the amount you are willing to lose per day/week/month. This will help you track your spending and avoid significant losses.
• Time-Outs: Take regular breaks from gaming by setting a self-imposed time-out period of 24 hours, 72 hours or 1 month.
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders about the amount of time spent gaming to help identify patterns that may lead to problem gambling.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel like your gaming habits are becoming problematic, we encourage you to take a break from our casino. Our self-exclusion program allows you to exclude yourself from playing at Boomtown Casino Fort McMurray for a set period of time (6 months, 1 year or lifetime). This will prevent you from accessing the premises and participating in any gaming activities during this time.
