Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
We are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and always set limits before you play.
Age Verification
All users must be 18 years of age or older to access and use gambling services in the United Kingdom. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity at any time. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to gamble.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Please be aware of the following warning signs, which may indicate problem gambling:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount of time and money spent
- Neglecting family, work, or social responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
- Experiencing mood swings or irritability when unable to gamble
- Gambling with increasingly larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Using gambling as an escape from stress, anxiety, or depression
- Feeling anxious or restless when not gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Most reputable gambling operators offer the following tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
- Loss Limits: Restrict the amount of money you can lose during a gaming session or time period.
- Reality Checks: Enable notifications that remind you how long you have been playing and how much you have spent.
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing gambling services if you feel you are losing control.
- Time Limits: Set a maximum duration for your gaming sessions to prevent prolonged play.
We encourage you to use these tools to manage your gambling responsibly.
