Responsible Gambling

Betting should be entertainment, never a way to make money or solve financial problems. These simple rules help keep it that way.
Only for adults
You must be 18 or over (or the legal age in your country) to gamble. Licensed operators verify age and identity before you can bet.
Set limits before you start
Decide on a budget and a time limit in advance. Use the deposit, loss and session limits offered by licensed bookmakers.
Never chase losses
Raising stakes to win back lost money is the fastest way to lose more. Accept losses as the cost of entertainment.
Know the warning signs
Betting more than you planned, borrowing money to gamble, hiding betting from family or feeling anxious when you are not betting are signs it is time to stop and talk to someone.
Take a break or self-exclude
Most licensed operators offer time-outs and self-exclusion. National schemes such as GAMSTOP in the UK block access to many gambling sites at once.
