Responsible Gambling

Bet smart. Stay in control.

If gambling stops being fun, it's a problem. Betting should be entertainment, not a way to make money or escape stress. If you're using it for either, please pause and read this page.

Bet within your means

  • Only stake what you can afford to lose. If losing it would cause real-world stress, the stake is too high.
  • Set a weekly or monthly budget. Stick to it.
  • Never chase losses. The next bet doesn't "owe" you a win.
  • Don't borrow money to bet — ever.

Warning signs

You may have a problem if you:

  • Bet more than you planned, more often than you planned.
  • Hide your betting from family or friends.
  • Feel restless or irritable when you can't bet.
  • Use betting to escape problems or bad moods.
  • Have lied to people you care about, about money or betting.
  • Have borrowed, sold things, or skipped bills to fund betting.
  • Think "one more bet" will fix things.

Practical steps

  • Set deposit limits with your bookmaker. Most regulated operators offer this.
  • Take time off. Try a self-exclusion period — a week, a month, longer.
  • Talk to someone you trust. Isolation makes problem gambling worse.
  • Get help. Free, confidential support is available everywhere.
