Responsible gambling
Gambling can be an enjoyable pastime, but it carries real financial risk. The information on this page is intended to help you stay in control — and to point you towards free, confidential support if you need it.
If gambling is affecting you or someone close to you right now, please contact GamCare on 0808 8020 133. It's free and available 24 hours a day.
Know the signs
Gambling may be becoming a problem if you:
- Spend more money or time gambling than you intended
- Chase losses by gambling again to try to recover money
- Feel irritable or anxious when not gambling
- Neglect work, relationships, or responsibilities because of gambling
- Borrow money or sell belongings to fund gambling
- Keep your gambling secret from people around you
Experiencing any of these does not mean you cannot get help. Support services are non-judgmental and available now.
Practical steps you can take
- Set deposit and loss limits on any casino account you hold. Most UKGC-licensed operators offer these tools in your account settings.
- Use reality checks — timed notifications that remind you how long you have been playing.
- Take a break using the operator's cool-off or time-out feature, which restricts access for a set period.
- Self-exclude via GAMSTOP to block yourself from all UK-licensed online gambling sites in one step.
- Use parental controls such as GamCare's guidance to protect young people in your household.
