Responsible play

Slots should stay a planned, controlled form of entertainment. The sections that follow cover the ground rules, the tools for setting limits, the warning signs to watch for and where to find help, in Germany and internationally.

Principles

Set clear rules before you start

Gambling costs money. Set a budget and a fixed time limit before you start, stick to both and take breaks to keep some distance.

Slots are entertainment, not a source of income. Wins and losses fluctuate at random. No system, pattern or sequence changes the odds of the next spin.

Only play if you are of legal age. Gambling is for adults aged 18 and over, and InfernoSlots is not aimed at minors.

If play starts to drive your mood or decisions, stop in good time. Check your limits regularly and lower them if needed.

The contacts listed first are German services run by the BZgA: its free helpline with the check-dein-spiel.de counselling programme, and the information portal Spielen mit Verantwortung with self-tests. Outside Germany, free and confidential help is available too. In the UK, the National Gambling Helpline run by GamCare is open around the clock by phone and via gamcare.org.uk; BeGambleAware (begambleaware.org) lists further support. Gambling Therapy (gamblingtherapy.org) offers free online support in several languages for people in any country, and Gamblers Anonymous (gamblersanonymous.org) runs self-help meetings worldwide. If staying in control is difficult, reach out to one of these contacts. The earlier a problem is addressed, the easier it is to change course.

Practical tools

Set and keep limits

Use deposit limits, stake limits, and loss limits to safeguard your financial boundaries. Time limits and reality checks help slow the pace and maintain breaks.

Time-outs and self-exclusion interrupt access for a defined period or indefinitely. Separate payment methods for leisure and everyday needs to avoid mixing funds.

Document play time and spending. A neutral overview makes patterns visible and supports early course corrections.

Recognising warning signs

Act early rather than waiting

Watch for signs such as chasing losses, playing longer than planned, borrowing money, delaying bills, or hiding play from family and friends. Mood swings, sleep problems, or the urge to recoup losses immediately also warrant attention.

RTP, volatility, and max win are statistical properties. They promise nothing for individual rounds. Each round is independent; no system changes the outcome of a spin.

If several signs appear, seek professional help early and use time-outs or self-exclusion. Pause play and create distance.
