RESPONSIBLE GAMING

Maxamillion’s, Inc. strives for all guests to enjoy our facility, our video slots, and our amenities as safely as possible. We stand by our policy to create a responsible gaming atmosphere. We believe that many of our guests enjoy our video slots and other offerings responsibly, but we understand that some customers may not engage with our product safely and responsibly. 

 

Every Maxamillion’s, Inc. location require guests to be 21 years of age or older to gamble or to purchase and consume alcohol. Our staff is trained and certified to check every ID of each patron trying to enter our facilities. Our staff is authorized to deny entry and deny a guest the purchase of alcohol. We have a zero-tolerance policy for underage persons participating in gaming or drinking at our facilities.

 

To accommodate our customers who struggle to conduct gaming in a responsible manner, we are committed to our policy modeled after the American Gaming Association’s Code of Conduct for Responsible Gaming. The Code lists minimum standards that address problem gambling, underage gambling, improper use of alcohol, responsible marketing, and advertising, and the prevention of unattended minors.

 

Maxamillion’s, Inc. and its properties utilize many business practices to promote responsible gaming including employee training programs, proactive marketing, and advertising, and continuous monitoring to evaluate the effectiveness of these precautions.
