Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At Tez888 (shiftgear.in), we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to gamble responsibly and within their means.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher) to use Tez888. We take age verification seriously and conduct checks to ensure compliance with Indian gambling laws and regulations.
If you are under the legal age, you are strictly prohibited from gambling on our platform.
