Customer Well-Being
We are committed to helping customers enjoy our products safely and sensibly.
Our Approach
As fellow Manitobans we care about our customers’ well-being and commit to helping them have positive experiences with our products. We understand this is important for our province and our people, and we know it’s in everyone’s long term best interest to build a healthy and sustainable customer base.
Informed Gambling
Helping customers enjoy gambling purely as a great form of entertainment is the goal of Informed Gambling. Informed Gambling aims to dispel commonly held myths, provides information on how the games work and provides our customers with tips to help keep their gaming experience fun.
DrinkSense
For customers who choose to include alcohol as part of their social life, DrinkSense can help them maintain a lifestyle that includes alcohol mixed with non-drinking days and an understanding of how to minimize short and long term alcohol related risks.
Help When Needed
We support people who are concerned about their drinking or gambling by referring them to helplines, treatment services, financial counselling and other support services. We also fund organizations that deliver problem gambling and alcohol addiction services in Manitoba to make sure help is available for those who need it.
