Quebec venue self-exclusion: use the official programme and keep its scope clear
Loto-Québec's captured venue self-exclusion information supports a programme route with stated terms. It does not block every gambling product, settle a payment dispute or guarantee an individual result.

The guide reports verified programme or complaint processes. It does not promise an outcome or turn a complaint into a finding.
Use the official programme page
Start from Loto-Québec's official self-exclusion information rather than an advert or casino message. Note the programme, date and terms that apply to the venue route.
Read the stated coverage
A venue programme has a defined scope. Do not assume it covers every private website, online product or province. Do not gamble to test whether a barrier works.
Keep disputes separate
Self-exclusion can address access to gambling; it does not decide a debit, cancel a debt or establish fault by an operator. Keep payment records for the relevant process.
Add practical barriers
Remove saved payment methods, leave gambling sites and ask a trusted person for support where safe. A programme barrier and human support can have different roles.
Ask for help early
Support is appropriate before a crisis. In immediate danger, use local emergency services rather than waiting for an online response.
Evidence boundary
This guide makes no clinical diagnosis, financial promise or claim about a particular person's programme outcome.
