Self-Control Tools

Tools Responsible Gaming That We Provide

Citynowcasino offers six self-control tools that you can activate at any time at no cost. All tools are available directly within your account.

Deposit Limit

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to ensure you never exceed your set budget. Limits can be reduced immediately, but increasing a limit requires a 24–48 hour cooling-off period to ensure the decision is made with a clear head.

Loss Limit

Set a maximum loss limit for your daily, weekly, or monthly sessions. Once this limit is reached, citynowcasino will automatically end your gaming session for the set period – protecting you from impulsive decisions made when emotions are running high.

Play Time Limit

Set a maximum playtime for each session. Once the time limit is reached, the citynowcasino platform will display a warning and gradually restrict your access to ensure you take a break and do not spend too long in front of the screen.

Play Break (Cooling-Off)

Need a short break? Activate the Play Break feature to suspend your access to the platform for 24 hours, 72 hours, or 7 days. During this period, your account remains active but you will not be able to log in or make deposits. A great option if you simply feel like stepping back for a while.

Self-Exclusion

For a longer break, the Self-Exclusion option allows you to block access to your account for 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, or permanently. An active self-exclusion cannot be cancelled before the period ends – this is a serious and effective protective measure.

Ad & Notification Controls

You can opt out of promotional communications from citynowcasino at any time. This includes promotional emails, bonus notifications, and exclusive offers. Full control is in your hands – citynowcasino will never pressure you to keep playing.

Guides & Information

Play Smart at CityNow Casino

Citynowcasino is an online casino entertainment platform. The key word here is "entertainment" – playing should bring you enjoyment, not become a source of anxiety, financial stress, or disruption to your daily life. We understand that the line between entertainment and problem gambling can sometimes blur, which is why citynowcasino invests seriously in its responsible gaming programme.

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means playing in control – knowing your limits, playing with money you can afford to lose, and keeping gaming as a small part of your social life rather than your entire focus. It does not mean you cannot play – it means playing in a way that does not harm your wellbeing or those around you.

Citynowcasino encourages all players to set a gaming budget before starting a session, treat money wagered as the cost of entertainment (like buying a movie ticket or dining out), and never attempt to "chase back" losses by impulsively increasing bets.

Safe Gaming Principles: Set a budget before you play. When the budget runs out, stop the session. Wins are a bonus, not a guarantee. Never play with money needed for essentials such as rent, bills, or food.

Understanding How Casino Games Work

One of the most important things every player should understand is that all casino games carry a mathematical advantage for the house (house edge). This is not a scam – it is a mathematical design that allows casinos to operate. The RTP (Return to Player) for slots typically ranges from 94% to 97%, meaning that for every MYR 100 wagered on average, MYR 94 to MYR 97 is returned to players over the long term.

This means that over a sufficiently long period, most players will experience a net loss. Understanding this reality helps you approach gaming with the right mindset – playing for enjoyment within a set time frame, not as a consistent source of income.

Casino Games Are Not a Solution to Financial Problems

This is one of the most important points citynowcasino wants to emphasise. If you are facing financial difficulties, gambling is not the solution. The "just one more try, maybe this time I'll win big" mindset is a serious warning sign. If you find yourself gambling to overcome money problems, please contact citynowcasino support immediately or consider using the self-exclusion tool.

How to Use citynowcasino's Control Tools

All citynowcasino self-control tools are accessible via the Account Settings section after logging in. The process is straightforward and takes no more than a few minutes. The citynowcasino 24/7 support team can also help you activate any of these tools via Live Chat.

Important: Once activated, a self-exclusion is final for the chosen period. citynowcasino will not allow early cancellation of a self-exclusion in order to protect player wellbeing. Please consider carefully before selecting your exclusion period.

Self-Assessment

Ask yourself these questions. If you answer "yes" to 3 or more, it may be worth talking to someone.

Do you often think about gambling even while doing other things?

Have you ever lied to family members about how much time or money you have spent gambling?

Have you ever played trying to win back money you had lost?

Has gambling ever caused problems in your relationships, work, or finances?

Do you find it hard to stop playing even when you intended to?

Warning Signs

Recognise the Signs Problem Gambling

Recognising the early signs is the single most important first step. This is not a weakness – it is self-awareness that takes courage.

1
Playing Longer Than Planned

You regularly find yourself playing far beyond the time you originally planned, or struggle to stop even when you want to.

2
Increasing Bets for the "Thrill"

Stakes that once felt thrilling no longer deliver the same excitement – you need to bet bigger just to feel the same rush.

3
Chasing Losses

After a loss, you feel compelled to keep playing and bet more in hopes of winning back the money you have lost.

4
Neglecting Responsibilities

Gambling is starting to affect your work performance, family relationships, or ability to meet your daily responsibilities.

5
Borrowing Money to Gamble

You start borrowing money, selling belongings, or dipping into emergency savings solely to fund your gambling.

6
Hiding Gaming Activity

You feel the need to hide how much you play or how much money you spend from the people you care about.

If you recognise yourself in any of the signs above: Don't feel ashamed – you are not alone in facing this. citynowcasino encourages you to contact our support team immediately or use the self-exclusion tool. The first step is always the hardest, but also the most meaningful.
