Set limits and seek support when you need it
Gambling involves the risk of losing money and is not a solution to financial difficulties. This content is for adults: at least 18, and older where local rules require it. Minors must not open accounts. If you are already worried about gambling, stopping and seeking support is more useful than trying to recover losses through another bet. A promising-looking game does not change that risk.

Before a session
Choose an amount you can lose without affecting housing, food, debt payments or family commitments. Set a duration too and use operator limits when available. A budget only helps if you keep it: avoid increasing it during play or borrowing to continue. Do not gamble to manage an argument, recover essential spending or compensate for an earlier result. A bonus or multiplier does not make betting a reliable source of income.
Warning signs that justify a break
Chasing losses, hiding spending, breaking limits, losing sleep or neglecting responsibilities are reasons to stop. Constant thoughts about gambling or needing larger stakes for the same excitement deserve attention too. A personal check cannot replace professional assessment, but can help recognise a problem before it worsens. Talk with someone you trust and avoid relying solely on a strategy to win. Support can be useful even before financial damage becomes severe.

Exclusion and support
Check the operator’s self-exclusion procedure, scope, duration and handling of existing accounts. Where available, combine it with bank gambling blocks or device-blocking tools. Exclusion from one website does not necessarily block others. In the United Kingdom, GamCare provides guidance and the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133. Elsewhere, seek appropriate local or multilingual support. If your safety is at immediate risk, contact emergency services in your country. Do not postpone urgent help while waiting for an account response.
Frequently asked questions
Does a deposit limit guarantee that I will not lose?
No. It restricts part of spending but does not remove risk or replace time limits and a decision to stop.
Do I need to be in debt before seeking help?
No. Seek support when gambling worries you or affects wellbeing, even without a large financial loss.
