Responsible Gaming
Fantasy sports should be entertainment. We want every contest on Shotgun Fantasy to stay fun, social, and within your means — and we take that responsibility seriously.
Age and eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to play on Shotgun Fantasy, and 21 or older in select states. Eligibility is verified at sign-up, and contests are only available in states where paid fantasy sports contests are permitted.
Play within your means
Only enter contests with money you can afford to lose. Fantasy sports involve risk, and no strategy guarantees a win. Set a budget before you play, treat entry fees as the cost of entertainment, and never chase losses.
Staying in control
If you want to slow down or step away, we will help. Contact support to request account limits, a temporary timeout, or self-exclusion from Shotgun Fantasy contests. Requests are honored without friction — no retention pitch.
Recognizing a problem
Warning signs include playing with money needed for essentials, hiding your play from people close to you, chasing losses, and feeling anxious or irritable when not playing. If any of these sound familiar, consider taking a break and reaching out for help.
Where to get help
Free, confidential help is available 24/7 from the National Problem Gambling Helpline: call or text 1-800-GAMBLER (1-800-426-2537), or visit the National Council on Problem Gambling. Support is available whether the concern is your own play or someone else's.
