Safer play tools

UK-licensed casinos are required to give players practical tools to stay in control. The options below sit inside the account area of every operator listed on this site.

Tools inside your casino account

• Deposit limits. Daily, weekly or monthly caps on how much you can add to your account.
• Loss and wagering limits. Stricter limits that close play once a threshold is hit.
• Time-outs. Short cooling-off breaks from 24 hours up to several weeks.
• Reality checks. On-screen reminders showing how long you have been playing.
• Self-exclusion. Closing your account for six months or longer.

Independent UK support

• GAMSTOP — one self-exclusion that applies to every UK-licensed online operator.
• GamCare — free, confidential support and a 24/7 helpline on 0808 8020 133.
• BeGambleAware — information, self-assessment tools and access to NHS-supported treatment.
• UK Gambling Commission — the regulator for online gambling in Great Britain.

Quick reminders

• Treat gambling as paid entertainment, not as a way to make money.
• Only stake amounts you can comfortably afford to lose.
• Set a deposit limit when you first open an account — it’s easier than later.
• Take regular breaks. If play stops feeling fun, step away.
