2. Identity Checks
We take stringent steps to ensure that only people of legal age participate and enter Betway.
The legal age for gaming online is 18 in Sweden.
An Age Verification Check will be performed upon registration before an account may be activated.
Any personal details we request from you are purely to verify your identity – this is a legal requirement for both your own and our protection. If you have any questions about our identity checks, please do not hesitate to contact Customer Service at any time.
3. Staying in Control
Betway encourages each of its Customers to actively participate in the management of their gambling account and so offers a variety of responsible gaming features.

3.4 Account Closure
If you feel like taking some time away from gambling, or you do not feel gambling is entertaining anymore, or for any other reason, you can simply close your account. You can re-open the account at any time by contacting the customer service team. If you would prefer not to have that option please see our self-exclusion option, which will restrict access to your account from 24 hours up to indefinitely.
If you would like to close your account you can do so by logging in and clicking here or alternatively you can contact our Customer Service team for assistance.
3.5 Stop Gambling - Exclusion
Should you consider that gambling has become problematic, you also have the ability to Self-Exclude yourself from future participation at Betway.
The following Self-Exclusion options are available:
Upon receipt of your Self-Exclusion request, Betway will take the necessary measures to block your access and will contact you with a view to returning any remaining funds held in account balances – subject to any outstanding wagering requirements by forfeiting the bonus and all winnings. A minimum refund value of 100kr applies.
As a further preventative measure, Betway recommends you consider applying the same safeguard at other gambling operators with whom you hold an account.
NOTE: Upon the Exclusion period expiring, your account will automatically be re-activated.
For indefinite exclusions, your account may only be considered for reactivation once 12 months has passed and upon request by you (contact must be either by telephone or in person) and may only come into effect after a further 24 hour cooling-off period has been instituted.
If you need to stop gambling, you can set a self-exclusion period by logging in and then clicking here. Alternatively, you can contact Customer Service for assistance.
If you are considering self-exclusion, you may wish to register with Spelpaus.se.
Spelpaus.se is a free service that helps you self-exclude from all online gambling companies licensed in Sweden.

3.6 Auto-Play Controls
The Auto-Play (Expert) mode available on many of our Slot games has been enhanced to give you even greater control of your game play. When using the Auto-Play mode you will now set:
1) the stake / bet amount; and
2) the number of spins; and
3) a loss limit.
In addition, you can also choose to set:
4) a single win amount.
The Auto-Play session will be interrupted and game play stop the moment one of the settings is triggered, so ensuring you remain within your chosen gambling limits.
