Treat every deposit as the price of an evening's entertainment, set aside from money you need for anything else. Gambling cannot pay the bills, and chasing a loss usually deepens it. You must be 18 or over to hold an account with us.
Setting your own limits
- A deposit limit caps what goes in over a period of your choosing.
- A session limit ends play after a set length of time.
- Reality checks pause the game to show how long you have been at it.
- A cooling-off period gives you a short break from the account.
- Self-exclusion locks you out for a chosen period that cannot be cut short or cancelled.
- Account closure lasts at least 30 days.
Outside GAMSTOP
We are not licensed by the UK Gambling Commission and not part of GAMSTOP, so GAMSTOP does not apply restrictions to our accounts. If you are registered, do not open an account with us; if you already have one, follow the written self-exclusion route our chat team provides. Confirmation activates the restriction.
Signs that play has changed
Spending longer or more than you meant to, borrowing, missing payments, keeping your gambling secret or feeling anxious between sessions all suggest it is time to pause.
