Responsible Gambling
Gambling should be enjoyable, not stressful. If it stops being fun, it's time to step back.
Stay in control
- Set a budget before you start and stick to it.
- Never chase losses.
- Don't gamble when you're upset, tired, or under the influence.
- Take regular breaks.
- Use deposit limits and session reminders offered by operators.
Self-exclusion
If you need a break from gambling, you can self-exclude from all UK-licensed gambling sites through GAMSTOP. Registration is free and takes effect within 24 hours.
