Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Safe Gaming

At falcon2020.ca, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to gamble within their means and to seek help if their gaming becomes problematic.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age in your Canadian province) to access and use Stake or any gambling services through falcon2020.ca. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognize any of these warning signs in yourself or someone else, it may indicate problem gambling:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, food, bills)
• Hiding gambling activities or lying about time/money spent gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
• Increasing the amount wagered to achieve the same excitement
• Failed attempts to reduce or control gambling
• Neglecting work, school, or personal relationships due to gambling
• Borrowing money or incurring debt to fund gambling
• Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
• Experiencing mood swings or depression related to gambling outcomes

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features

Most gambling platforms, including Stake, offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
• Session Time Limits: Automatically end your gaming session after a set duration
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling accounts

We strongly encourage you to use these tools as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
