Gambling help in Curaçao

Curaçao licenses operators that serve players in other countries, so most people affected by a Curaçao-licensed site live elsewhere and should first use support services in their own country. Licensees must provide responsible gambling tools, including limits, cooling-off and self-exclusion across all their brands, and must have a complaints procedure. The Curaçao Gaming Authority supervises licensees and can receive complaints when an operator fails to resolve one. Gamblers Anonymous offers online meetings internationally. Device-level blocking software and bank gambling blocks are useful for people who want to stop using offshore sites altogether.

If you or someone else is in immediate danger or thinking about suicide, call your local emergency number now. Helplines below are for gambling-related support and are generally free and confidential.
