Set Limits Before You Play
- Choose a budget you can afford to lose, separate from rent, bills and savings
- Decide how long you will play and take regular breaks
- Do not deposit again to win back losses
- Never gamble with borrowed money
Warning Signs
- Spending more time or money than planned
- Chasing losses or hiding gambling from others
- Borrowing money or delaying essential payments
- Gambling affecting sleep, work or relationships
If any of these sound familiar, stop playing and talk to someone you trust or an independent support service.
Bonuses Are Not a Safety Tool
Bonuses, free spins and VIP rewards do not reduce the risk of losing. Wagering can encourage longer play, so only claim an offer if it fits a budget you already set.
Protecting Minors
Keep passwords and payment details away from children, log out on shared devices and use parental controls where appropriate.
