Our philosophy

We aim to make disciplined betting practical: clear rules, manageable stakes, and tools that limit impulse behavior. Our product is educational and decision-support — not a guarantee of profit. We insist on safe defaults and transparent advice.

Rules & guardrails you should follow

  • Be 18+: Only adults may use our services. If you're under 18, stop now — ask a parent/guardian for help.
  • Use small stakes: Typical recommended sizing is 0.5–2% of bankroll per ticket. Be conservative.
  • No chasing: Do not increase stake to recover losses. Reset to base rules after a loss.
  • Follow the ruleset: Use the pick guardrails (min p%, max fair odd, max legs) rather than emotion-driven choices.
  • Limit session time: Avoid long betting sessions—set a timer and step away.
Quick practice: Before placing a ticket, pause for 60 seconds and ask: "Is this within my rules and stake limits?" If not, don’t place it.

Bankroll management

Good bankroll management is the single most important habit for longevity.

  • Decide a bankroll: Set aside a fixed amount you can afford to lose and use only that for betting.
  • Fixed fraction: Use a fixed fraction (0.5–2%) of your bankroll per ticket, not a fixed currency amount unless you rebalance regularly.
  • Stop-loss rules: Define a daily/weekly stop-loss (example: stop if you lose 5% of bankroll in a day).
  • Profit protection: When you win, consider locking away a portion of profit—don’t rollover all winnings automatically unless within rules.

Tools we provide to help

We build product features to reduce harm and improve discipline. Use them.

  • Deposit & stake limits: Set daily/weekly/monthly deposit caps and maximum stake sizes in your account settings.
  • Reality checks: Optional pop-ups or email summaries after sessions to reflect on activity.
  • Cooling-off / timeouts: Temporary account suspension (24/48/7 days) you can enable when you need a break.
  • Self-exclusion: Longer-term account deactivation (months to years) with clear reactivation rules.
  • Session timers: In-dashboard timers to limit continuous play time.
  • Spending analytics: Personal dashboards that show bets, wins/losses, and streaks to help audit behaviour.
To enable most of these features visit your Account → Safety & Limits or contact support@goldenprediction.com.

Signs of risky or problem gambling

Watch for patterns that suggest gambling is causing harm:

  • Increasing stake sizes to chase losses (chasing).
  • Betting longer or more frequently than intended.
  • Lying about betting to family or friends or hiding activity.
  • Using money intended for essentials (rent, bills) to gamble.
  • Feelings of anxiety, depression, or agitation related to betting.
If you recognise these signs: Pause immediately. Use cooling-off or self-exclusion, contact support, and consider contacting a local treatment provider or helpline.

How to get help

If you or someone you care about needs support, there are options. Professional support is effective — reach out.

📞
Contact support (GoldenPrediction)
Email support@goldenprediction.com to ask for immediate account controls (limits, cooling-off, self-exclusion).
🌐
Local & international resources
If you are in Nigeria, consider contacting the Nigeria Centre for Mental Health or local addiction services. If you are elsewhere, search for national problem gambling helplines (e.g., Gamblers Anonymous, local health services). If in immediate danger, call emergency services.
🧭
Self-help & therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and support groups have good evidence for problem gambling. Ask your GP to refer you or use local health directories.
If you’re not sure where to start, contact us and we can share local helpline details (we will not pressure you — privacy is respected).

Protecting minors

Our service is for adults only. To help prevent underage access:

  • We require age verification at signup where legally mandated.
  • Use parental controls on devices and activate safe-search / restricted profiles.
  • If you suspect a minor created an account, contact support and we will suspend and investigate.

FAQ — quick answers

Q: How do I set deposit limits?

A: Visit Account → Safety & Limits, choose daily/weekly/monthly caps, and confirm. Contact support to request higher security checks.

Q: How do I self-exclude?

A: In Safety & Limits choose Self-Exclusion and select a period (30/90/180 days or more). We will lock wagering features and hide promotional emails during exclusion.

Q: Can I reactivate after self-exclusion?

A: Depends on the exclusion length and policy. Short cooling-offs usually reactivate automatically; longer exclusions require a verified request and cooling period.

Q: Where are betting rules enforced?

A: We enforce our terms and responsible use policies globally, subject to local law. In restricted jurisdictions, we may limit or block access entirely.
