Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Dream Webs Dream Catchers, we believe online casino gaming should be enjoyed purely as entertainment. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. It should only be done with money you can afford to lose, and never as a substitute for employment or income.
We encourage all players to gamble responsibly and to set strict limits on both time and money spent.
Age Verification
In Canada, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age in your province) to participate in online gambling. Some provinces have higher minimum ages.
All players are required to verify their age and identity during account registration. We take age verification seriously to protect minors and comply with all applicable Canadian laws.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone else, seek help immediately:
- Spending more time or money gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount you gamble
- Feeling irritable or anxious when trying to cut down or stop
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Neglecting family, friends, work, or school due to gambling
- Borrowing money or going into debt to finance gambling
- Continued gambling despite negative financial or personal consequences
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Thinking constantly about gambling or past gambling experiences
