Responsible Gambling

Gambling Responsibly

• •Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
• •Set deposit limits and stick to them
• •Never chase your losses
• •Take regular breaks from gambling
• •Don't gamble when you're upset, stressed, or under the influence
• •Keep gambling fun - if it stops being enjoyable, take a break

Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Here are some warning signs to watch for:

• •Spending more money or time gambling than you can afford
• •Feeling the need to be secretive about your gambling
• •Having difficulty controlling or stopping your gambling
• •Gambling when you can't afford it or to escape problems
• •Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
• •Neglecting work, family, or social commitments due to gambling

Self-Exclusion Tools

If you feel you need to take a break from gambling, UK casinos offer several self-exclusion options:

• •Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on how much you can deposit
• •Time Limits: Restrict how long you can play in a single session
• •Reality Checks: Receive reminders about how long you've been playing
• •Self-Exclusion: Block access to your account for a set period (6 months to 5 years)
• •GamStop: Exclude yourself from all UKGC-licensed online gambling sites

Underage Gambling

It is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to gamble in the UK. All casinos we review have strict age verification processes in place. Parents and guardians should:

• •Monitor children's internet use and set parental controls
• •Keep payment cards and gambling accounts secure
• •Talk to children about the risks of gambling
• •Report any site that allows underage gambling to the UK Gambling Commission
