Moderation Tools for Responsible Gaming
At Circus, we encourage you to play and bet responsibly. That's why we've provided a variety of tools to help ensure that your gaming experience stays enjoyable and within your control.
Keep Your Expenses Under Control
You can set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit in your account settings, ensuring you can't deposit more than the amount you've specified for each period.
Want to adjust your limit? You can lower your limit at any time, and the change will take effect immediately. However, if you wish to increase your limit, please note that there is a 7-day cooling-off period before the change is applied. Also, keep in mind that you can only request one increase at a time.
Set a Time Limit
Want to manage the time you spend on our website? Set a session limit per day, week, or month. Your session time is tracked from the moment you log in until you log out.
Need to adjust your limit? You can update it anytime. Lowering your limit takes effect immediately, while increasing it will take 7 days to apply.
Set a Balance Limit on Your Account
Concerned about overspending while gaming or betting? Set up an automatic transfer to control your account balance. You decide the maximum amount of credit you want to keep in your account—any excess funds will be automatically transferred to your bank account.
Want to adjust your limit? You can update these amounts at any time. Decreasing your limit takes effect immediately, while increasing it will take 7 days to process.
Take a Self-Assessment Test
Curious about what type of player you are? Want to check if your gambling behavior puts you at risk? Take the self-assessment test on the Centrum voor Verantwoord Gokken website.
This test is for your personal use only—we do not store or use your results.
If the test indicates that your gambling behavior may be risky, we strongly encourage you to use the moderation tools available on this page and take immediate action.
Remember, you also have the option to permanently exclude yourself by taking a Gambling Stop and registering with CRUKS (Centraal Register Uitsluiting Kansspelen).
Complete the Digital Monitor Card – “Bet You Can!”
The "Bet You Can!" digital monitor card for sports betting helps you make clear and conscious decisions about your betting habits. It provides tips on setting limits for your total bets, betting frequency, and tracking your payouts.
Simply enter your winnings and stakes, and the monitor card will automatically calculate your results. At the bottom, it summarizes all completed days, giving you a clear overview of your total wins or losses over time.
Exclude Yourself from Specific Games or Sports Betting
Do you feel like you're spending too much time on roulette or placing too many bets, but don’t want to fully exclude yourself from the Circus platform? You can limit your activity and reduce your risk by excluding yourself from specific game categories.
Simply set an exclusion period using the calendar. Keep in mind that once you exclude yourself from a category, you will no longer receive related perks, in accordance with our Responsible Gaming policy.
Take a break
If you need a short break from gaming, you can temporarily block access to your account. This can be done directly through our website for a period ranging from 1 day to 6 months. During this time, you will not be able to deposit funds or play on our platform, but you will still be able to submit withdrawal requests. After the selected period ends, your account will automatically be reactivated.
Need a Longer Break?
If you require a permanent solution, you can request a lifetime exclusion from our platform. Once confirmed, your account will be permanently suspended, and you will no longer be able to access it. Please note that a lifetime exclusion is irreversible by law.
Self-Exclusion
If the previous steps haven’t helped and you feel like you are still losing control, you have the option to request a permanent exclusion from casinos, gaming halls, and online gambling websites. You can choose to exclude yourself from both online and physical casinos.
To do this, you can submit the required form here or by post to the Gaming Authority or register yourself in the Central Register of Exclusion of Gambling (CRUKS). You can select an exclusion period of six months or opt for a permanent ban.
Concerned About a Loved One's Gambling?
If you suspect that a relative or loved one has a gambling problem, support is available. You can reach out to Loket Kansspel, AGOG (Anonieme Gokker Omgeving Gokker), or the Centrum voor Verantwoord Gokken for advice and guidance.
Additionally, you have the option to request a gambling ban for a third party through the Kansspelautoriteit.
