Responsible Gambling

Gambling should stay entertainment. If it stops being fun, or starts costing more than you intended, help is available and it is free.

Gambling should stay entertainment. This page should carry deposit limit guidance, self-exclusion routes and the correct helpline numbers for every market you target.

Signs worth taking seriously

  • Betting more than you can comfortably afford to lose.
  • Chasing losses by increasing stakes or session length.
  • Borrowing money or selling possessions to keep playing.
  • Gambling to escape stress, boredom or low mood.
  • Hiding how much time or money you spend from others.
  • Neglecting work, study, family or health to gamble.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable or restless when not playing.

Tools that actually help

Deposit limits Cap what you can pay in daily, weekly or monthly. Most licensed sites offer this in account settings.
Loss and wager limits Set a ceiling on losses or total stakes over a period, independent of deposits.
Session reminders Have the site interrupt you at set intervals so time does not disappear.
Time out Lock your account for a short cooling-off period, typically 24 hours to six weeks.
Self-exclusion Block access for six months or longer. Scheme-wide options cover many sites at once.
Blocking software Tools such as Gamban and BetBlocker restrict gambling sites across your devices.
