Play as Entertainment, Not Income
Betting and casino games are paid entertainment. Every game has a mathematical edge for the house, so losses over time are normal and winnings are never a reliable source of income. Setting a budget before you play – money you can afford to lose without affecting rent, bills or savings – is the single most effective habit. Time matters as much as money: decide in advance how long a session will last and stop when that time is up.
Warning Signs
These signs can point to a problem with gambling:
- Chasing losses: Playing longer or with higher stakes to win back money already lost.
- Hiding play: Not telling family or friends how much time or money goes into gambling.
- Borrowing to play: Using credit, loans or money set aside for other needs.
- Losing track of time: Sessions regularly lasting much longer than planned.
- Mood swings: Feeling restless or irritable when not playing, or playing to escape problems.
If one or more of these sound familiar, it is a good moment to use the tools below or talk to a support service.
Account Tools
Loss and session limits
A maximum loss per period and a reminder or stop after a set session time.
Time-out
A short break from 24 hours to several weeks during which the account cannot be used.
Self-exclusion
A long-term or permanent block of the account, requested in settings or via support.
These tools are found in the responsible gaming section of the account settings or can be requested through live chat. A self-exclusion cannot be lifted early. Many devices also offer built-in screen-time limits that can be set for the browser or the app.
Protection of Minors
Gambling is only for adults aged 18 or over. Accounts are verified with identity documents, and accounts found to belong to minors are closed. Parents can use parental-control software and should not leave devices logged in to gambling sites where children have access.
Where to Get Help
Free and confidential support is available for players and their families:
- BeGambleAware: information, self-assessment and a helpline at begambleaware.org.
- GamCare: support and counselling at gamcare.org.uk.
- Gambling Therapy: free international online support in several languages at gamblingtherapy.org.
Talking to someone early makes a difference. Support services can also help family members who are worried about someone else’s gambling.
