Responsible play
Deckwise is a place to learn and practice with virtual units. Real gambling carries real risk, even for skilled players. This page explains how to keep it healthy.
Plain-language guidance
- Decide on a time and money limit before you play, and stop when you reach either.
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never borrow to gamble.
- Expect losing sessions. Counting does not make any single session safe.
- Take breaks, and don’t play when you are upset, tired or have been drinking.
Signs gambling may be causing harm
- Spending more time or money than you planned, or hiding it from people close to you.
- Chasing losses, or feeling you need to win back what you lost.
- Gambling affecting your sleep, work, studies, relationships or mood.
- Feeling restless or irritable when you try to cut down.
How Deckwise can help
- Set a daily practice goal and gentle reminders, or turn reminders off entirely.
- Turn on a session reminder that nudges you after a set number of minutes.
- Take a break: hide practice on every device for up to 30 days from Settings.
- Chips are earn-only, have no cash value and can never be bought.
