We are committed to sharing responsibility, with governments and communities, for helping problem gamblers to identify their problem and seek assistance. Some of the ways that we do this are:

"COOL OFF" OR SELF-EXCLUSION

If you feel that you are losing control of your play and would like help in restricting your access to our Service, we offer you the option to take a break or to self-exclude from wagering with us. Take a break options range from 3 days to 365 days. Self-exclusion options range from 1 year to permanent depending on the licensed jurisdiction. If you would like to self-exclude, you will need to complete and return our Self-Exclusion Form or fill out the self-exclusion form on the jurisdiction website. This includes:

For patrons in Iowa, you can use the cool-off feature to self-exclude from the Sporttrade app. You can do so for a definite period of 3 - 365 days. You can also self-exclude indefinitely by selecting 365 days for cool off.

If you require assistance, please contact our Customer Experience team via one of the following methods:

Please note: Sporttrade may opt to close your Account permanently rather than self-exclude you.

We also encourage you to consider seeking self-exclusion from any other betting agencies that you may have accounts with. We reserve the right to share self-exclusion lists with the state regulatory body in which your account was registered and/or other gaming providers in that state. For example: if you self-exclude your Sporttrade Account that was registered in New Jersey, you will be self-excluded from all other licensed New Jersey gambling sites. If you self-exclude from another New Jersey licensed gambling site, you will automatically be self-excluded from Sporttrade.

If you self-exclude in any of the states in which Sporttrade is licensed, you will be excluded overall from Sporttrade.

NJDGE has established a toll-free number dedicated to self-exclusion inquiries and now offers self-exclusion application video conferences. For NJ Patrons, by calling 1-833-788-4DGE (1-833-788-4343), individuals can receive assistance and guidance on setting up self-exclusion. This service is designed to provide support to those who may encounter difficulties with the self-exclusion process or require a video conference to complete a self-exclusion request. DGE in person appointments are also still available and can be arranged by calling the toll-free number.
