If you’re new to sports betting, it’s crucial to understand what it means to be a responsible player.

Betting on sports can be fun and exciting, but it’s important to approach it responsibly and mindfully. Our guidelines are based on transparency and ethics, always aiming to enhance the player’s experience.

Set a budget

Here are the sentences with a more fluid and natural feel:

Set a limited and controlled budget. Bet responsibly, using only extra money that isn’t needed for essential expenses.

Sports bets are not basic necessities and shouldn’t be treated as such. So, we recommend the following practices:

Set a maximum amount to spend on daily bets;

Decide what percentage of your bankroll to bet on each wager

Set a loss limit that, once reached, stops all bets for the day;

Don’t chase losses. Losing money can be disappointing, but when it happens, take a break and reassess your strategies.

Plan a strategy based on data

Most sports bets are based on probabilities and statistics, so predictions should use strategies and methods grounded in available data.

Besides having general knowledge about a specific sport, it’s crucial to understand that sports betting requires planning and research.

We recommend thoroughly studying all the odds and projections of potential earnings and losses. 

We also suggest analyzing:

The current sports betting market;

The platform that will be used;

The price, importance, and comparison of odds;

The available quotation;

Club performance over this season;

The results of the previous matches between the teams;

The current state of both teams, as well as the line-up for the match;

Championship information;​

News, information, and opinions from specialists on the game.

Remember, the principle of rationality is what defines a good prediction. Therefore, keep your emotions in check when betting. Avoid making decisions based on emotion or impulsiveness. Be prepared to accept both victories and defeats.

Choose transparent and trustworthy platforms

 The Brazilian Institute of Responsible Gaming was created to promote a secure, transparent, and healthy relationship between players and their betting platforms. 

Our partners prioritize responsible gaming and the security of their clients, ensuring higher integrity and well-being for everyone involved.

We believe that betting on websites with clear, fair, and transparent terms is the best way to ensure a good experience and enjoy this form of entertainment.

Set limits on your play time

One of the key principles of responsible betting is to limit the time you spend on it.

To prevent addiction, loss of control, and significant losses, avoid betting daily. Bet only when you have spare time, making sure it doesn’t interfere with your life priorities like family and work.

Always see betting as a hobby to be enjoyed in moderation. This helps maintain the emotional control and rationality needed when betting.

Know the local laws

Make sure to follow all regulations and laws related to sports betting in your region. Respect the laws established by competent authorities and avoid any illegal activities.

You must be 18 years old or older to register with any betting house or online casino.
