Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
Gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, similar to going to the cinema or eating out. It should never be considered a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years old or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction to use our affiliated betting services. We take age verification seriously and all operators we recommend conduct strict ID checks before allowing access to gambling facilities.
If you are under 18, we urge you not to gamble and to seek support if you have concerns about your own gambling or that of someone else.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Please review the following checklist. If you recognise any of these signs in your own behaviour, it may be time to seek help:
- ☐ Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money lost
- ☐ Hiding gambling activity or lying to friends and family about how much you gamble
- ☐ Gambling with money intended for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
- ☐ Feeling anxious or irritable when trying to reduce or stop gambling
- ☐ Gambling for longer periods than intended
- ☐ Borrowing money to fund gambling activity
- ☐ Neglecting work, study, or family commitments due to gambling
- ☐ Using gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or other emotional problems
- ☐ Continually thinking about gambling when not actively gambling
- ☐ Friends or family expressing concern about your gambling habits
If you've ticked any of these boxes, please consider reaching out to one of the support organisations listed below.
Self-Help Tools and Controls
All reputable betting operators provide responsible gaming tools to help you maintain control. Make use of these features:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a set timeframe.
- Reality Checks: Enable pop-up reminders during gambling sessions to help you keep track of time and money spent.
- Session Limits: Set automatic time limits for your gambling sessions.
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling platforms. This prevents you from accessing your account for a defined period.
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gambling entirely.
We recommend speaking with your chosen operator's customer support team to activate these tools on your account.
