Gambling should always be fun, safe, and within your control. This policy explains how OnRake helps you play responsibly and where to turn if you need support.
OnRake is committed to providing a safe, fair, and transparent place to play. Gambling can be a fun form of entertainment, but for some people it can become a serious problem. This policy explains how we promote responsible play, the tools we give you to stay in control, and how we protect people who may be at risk — including minors.
By creating an account and using OnRake, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to this policy. It applies to all casino games, sports betting, and any other wagering on our platform.

Underage Gambling
You must be at least 18 years old or the legal gambling age in your country if it is higher, to register and play on OnRake. It is your responsibility to know and follow the age rules where you live, and to confirm you are eligible when you sign up.
Gambling by anyone under 18 is strictly prohibited. We run random identity and age checks through the payment systems used for deposits. If we find that an underage person has gambled, all winnings will be forfeited, the account will be permanently closed, and the matter may be reported to the relevant authorities in that person’s country.
Advice for Parents and Guardians
If children share your devices, please take these precautions:
- Password-protect every computer, phone, and tablet used to access OnRake.
- Never leave a device unattended while logged into your account.
- Keep your login details and payment information out of children’s reach.
- Don’t save passwords on shared or family devices.
- Install parental-control or web-filtering software (for example, Net Nanny or Qustodio) to block gambling sites.
Keep These Things in Mind
- Gambling is entertainment — never a source of income.
- Gambling is not a solution to money problems.
- Set a budget before you play and stick to it strictly.
- Never chase losses or use money meant for essentials.
- Gamble only in your free time, and watch how long you play.
Every casino game and sports product has a built-in Return to Player (RTP) percentage and a house edge that favours the operator over the long run. Treat the money you wager as entertainment spending — money you can afford to lose. Games of chance can result in wins or losses.
Protect Yourself and Gamble Responsibly
If you can’t keep your gambling under control, the safest choice is to stop altogether. That is the best way to protect yourself and the people you care about. Help is always available, and our team is here to support you — openly and without judgement.
