18+ Responsible Gambling

Gambling should stay enjoyable and within your means. This page brings together the UK's main free support and self-exclusion tools in one place.

Staying In Control

Before you register with any licensed brand, it's worth setting your own limits in advance:

  • Set a deposit limit you can comfortably afford, before you're in the moment of deciding.
  • Treat gambling as entertainment spend, not a way to make money or recover losses.
  • Take regular breaks — most operators offer a time-out or cool-off tool in account settings.
  • Never gamble under the influence of alcohol or when you're stressed, upset or trying to escape a problem.
  • Never gamble with money set aside for essentials.

Signs Gambling May Be Becoming A Problem

  • Spending more time or money gambling than you intended to.
  • Chasing losses or gambling to escape worry or stress.
  • Hiding your gambling from family or friends.
  • Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund gambling.
  • Feeling irritable or anxious when trying to cut down.

If any of this sounds familiar, free and confidential support is available today — you don't need to hit a crisis point first.
