# Tools to Stay Responsible

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Maximum Bet" %}
Prodds sets a Pool-Level Maximum Bet that applies to all users uniformly, ensuring fair and controlled betting across prediction pools. Additionally, users can set their own Individual-Level Maximum Bet to personalize their risk limits.

This tool helps maintain responsible wagering practices, minimizing the potential for excessive betting by setting clear boundaries.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Activity Dashboard" %}
Users have access to an interactive dashboard that showcases their betting history and overall performance metrics. The dashboard includes a rolling 30-day limit feature that tracks net $RDM flow. If a user’s net $RDM flow surpasses this limit, a warning and additional confirmation prompt will be shown before proceeding with new predictions.

By providing insight into betting patterns and activity, the dashboard empowers users to make informed decisions and recognize potential problem behaviors early.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Self-Exclusion" %}
Prodds offers a self-exclusion tool that enables users to voluntarily freeze their accounts for a specified period, preventing any predictions or withdrawals during that time.

This proactive tool supports users who wish to take a break or mitigate problem gambling tendencies, ensuring they maintain control over their engagement with the platform.
