Set a conservative limit during setup. Reductions should be easy; delays on increases are intentional protection against impulsive decisions.
What matters at a glance
- Choose an affordable cap
- Do not budget future wins
- Control notifications
- Use a break when needed
Choose the number outside the moment
Start from rent, bills, savings and essentials. Only the remainder can contain an entertainment budget, and gambling should not consume it by default.
Why increases may be delayed
Cooling-off delays create time between an urge and access to more funds. That friction is the feature, not a technical problem.
When a limit is not enough
