Responsible Gambling
18+ only. Last checked: 4 October 2026
Gambling is paid entertainment, not a way to earn money. Every casino game has a built-in house edge, so the longer you play, the more likely you are to end up behind. Only stake money you can afford to lose, as you would pay for a night out, and never money meant for rent, bills or debts. You must be 18 or older, and above the legal gambling age where you live.
What the operator publishes
bufonbet.com now forwards to gangabet.mx (see our login page). The “Juego Responsable” page there (read 4 October 2026) is short. Apart from general principles and a ten-point list of advice, it offers one concrete step: email the operator about a gambling problem and it will help you set a deposit limit or close your account for a period. The address shown is [email protected]; the link behind it actually opens [email protected].
- Self-exclusion in the account. The site's code includes a self-exclusion form with these choices: sports, virtuals, live casino, casino or all sections, for 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year or indefinitely. According to its own text, saving it logs you out and you cannot log in until the period ends. We could not test it without opening an account.
- Account closure. The Terms and Conditions let you close your account at any time by a written request through the site or to [email protected], with a photo of your ID; closure is promised within 7 days.
- Operator-initiated suspension. The terms allow the operator to suspend an account when it sees risky behaviour under its Responsible Gaming policy.
We found no published loss limits, session reminders or time-outs. The licence validation page for gangabet.mx (4 October 2026) states that operators under this Anjouan licence must provide functional responsible gaming tools, including self-exclusion and deposit limits. The same licence covers gangabet.com and bufonbet.com, so if you exclude yourself, ask the operator in writing to apply it to all its domains, and use blocking software as well (see below). More on our licensing page.

- Gambling takes the place of sleep, work, study or time with people close to you.

If any of these sound familiar, stop for now and talk to someone. The services below are confidential.
Tools you can use yourself
- Set a budget before you start and treat it as spent. When it is gone, the session is over.
- Set a time limit with a phone alarm. Online casinos have no clocks and no closing time.
- Never deposit to win back losses. The house edge does not change because you are behind.
- Ask your bank about a gambling block on your card. Many banks offer one.
- BetBlocker is free software from a registered Scottish charity. It blocks gambling websites and apps on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS. betblocker.org
- Gamban is a paid blocker for all major device platforms, with one licence for all your devices and a free trial. gamban.com
