Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
Gambling should only ever be viewed as entertainment, similar to going to the cinema or watching a sporting event. It should never be considered a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always gamble with money you can afford to lose, and set strict limits before you start playing.
Age Verification
We are committed to protecting young people. Gambling is only legal for those aged 18 years and over in the United Kingdom. By accessing any gambling sites through our platform, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and meet all legal requirements in your jurisdiction.
If you are under 18, please do not attempt to gamble. If you are concerned about a young person's gambling habits, please seek help from the organisations listed below.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do any of the following apply to you? If so, you may have a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses — trying to win back money you've lost by gambling more
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Hiding your gambling from family or friends
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, or difficult emotions
- Borrowing money to fund gambling
- Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities because of gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or guilty about your gambling
- Failed attempts to cut down or stop gambling
- Gambling with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
- Relationship problems or arguments related to gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please reach out for support immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Most reputable gambling operators offer the following tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a session or timeframe
- Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders during gambling sessions about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Time-Outs: Take a mandatory break from gambling for a set period (hours or days)
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from gambling for a period (typically 6 months to 5 years) — this can be applied to individual sites or, in the UK, across multiple licensed operators through GamStop
We strongly encourage you to use these tools if you feel your gambling is becoming problematic. Speak to the gambling site's support team to activate any of these features.
