Giveaway Competitions is thrilled to announce the imminent launch of a powerful and proactive tool in our Competition System – the “Responsibility Controls” plugin!
At Giveaway Competitions, we are committed to providing an exciting competition experience and ensuring the safety and well-being of our valued customers. With Responsibility Controls, we’re taking a significant step forward in promoting responsible play and putting the power to manage their gaming habits directly into the hands of our users.
Responsibility Controls is a cutting-edge plugin designed to empower your users to participate in a responsible and controlled manner. We recognise that while taking part in competitions can be an enjoyable pastime, it’s essential to maintain a healthy balance. This plugin equips our customers with the tools to set limits, take breaks, and even exercise self-exclusion if necessary, all within a dedicated section of their My Account area.
Spending Limits: Customers now have the capability to define their own financial boundaries by setting daily, weekly, monthly, or even yearly spending limits. This functionality encourages mindful play and prevents excessive spending, ensuring that competitions remain an enjoyable part of their lives.
Self-Exclusion Options: Sometimes, taking a step back is the best course of action. With Responsibility Controls, customers can choose to self-exclude for durations of 1, 4, 12 weeks, or even an entire year. During this period, access to their account is temporarily restricted, providing an opportunity to refocus and return with a refreshed perspective.
Admin Account Lock: Site administrators also have a role to play in fostering responsible participation. The plugin grants admins the authority to temporarily lock customer accounts, preventing access to their accounts upon their request or if they are exhibiting signs of problematic behaviour. This feature demonstrates your commitment to safeguarding your customers’ well-being.
We would advise any current or new player, if in doubt, DON’T. There are many resources online to help with gaming/gambling addictions. See some resources below.
