At Play Center Fun, we believe gaming should always remain a form of entertainment — never a source of pressure or income.
Our mission is to help players make informed, responsible, and balanced choices when engaging with online games of chance.
1. Our approach
We are an independent informational website.
We do not operate casinos, process player payments, or offer wagering.
However, we actively promote responsible play principles across all SRIJ-licensed operators we list.
We encourage players to:
- Play only at verified and licensed platforms
- Set time and spending limits before playing
- View gaming as fun — not as a financial solution
- Take regular breaks and monitor emotions while playing
2. Recognizing signs of problem gambling
Gambling should be enjoyable, but sometimes it can become excessive or harmful.
You may be at risk if you:
- Spend more time or money than intended
- Feel anxious or irritable when not playing
- Hide gambling habits from friends or family
- Borrow money or chase losses
- Neglect work, study, or relationships due to play
If you notice these signs, seek support early — help is confidential and available 24/7.
3. How operators support responsible play
Licensed SRIJ operators must implement responsible gaming tools and player protections, such as:
- Deposit, loss, and session time limits
- Account self-exclusion and cool-off periods
- Age verification and ID checks
- Reality checks and spending summaries
- Links to external support organizations
We recommend reviewing each operator’s Responsible Gaming section before registering or playing.
4. Protecting minors
Online gaming is strictly for adults (18+).
To prevent underage access:
- Keep devices password-protected
- Avoid saving payment details in browsers
- Use parental-control or filtering software (e.g., NetNanny, Qustodio)
Parents and guardians play a key role in setting healthy digital habits.
5. Getting help and support
If you believe gambling is no longer fun or is causing harm, we strongly encourage you to reach out for assistance.
Professional help is available through these organizations:
- 🇵🇹 Serviço de Intervenção nos Comportamentos Aditivos e nas Dependências (SICAD) — sicad.pt
- 🇬🇧 GamCare — gamcare.org.uk
- 🇬🇧 BeGambleAware — begambleaware.org
- 🌍 Gamblers Anonymous — gamblersanonymous.org
They offer free, confidential counseling and self-help tools.
6. Self-exclusion tools
All licensed SRIJ operators provide options to pause or close your account temporarily or permanently.
If you feel you need a break, use these tools immediately or contact the operator’s support team.
You can also block access to gambling websites through specialized apps such as Gamban or BetBlocker.
7. Final note
Responsible gaming is about awareness and balance.
Our goal at Play Center Fun is to connect players only with safe, licensed operators who take player protection seriously.
If you ever feel gaming is affecting your well-being — pause, seek help, and talk to someone you trust.
