Safer Gambling

Our pledge

We consider it a privilege to host your bets. With that privilege comes a duty to ensure you remain fully aware of the potential social and financial harms of problem gambling, so each flutter stays exactly where it belongs: in the realm of leisure.

Keep Your Play in Check

•Play for pleasure, not profit. Gambling is entertainment, never a source of income.

•Resist the chase. The more you chase losses, the more you lose — your wellbeing is worth more than any bet.

•Stake sensibly. Wager only what you can comfortably afford to lose.

•Mind the clock and the kitty. Track both your time on site and your spend.

•Take a breather when needed. Self-exclusion and bespoke limits are available 24/7 in Limits & Safer Gambling tab within your profile, or by contacting our Support Team.

If you are considering self-exclusion, please remember to contact all gambling companies with whom you have accounts and ask to self-exclude with them too. We also recommend that consideration is given to the installation of software that will allow you to block access to internet gambling websites.

If you are considering self-exclusion, you may wish to register with GAMSTOP. GAMSTOP is a free service that enables you to selfexclude from participating online gambling companies licensed in Great Britain. To find out more and to sign up with GAMSTOP please visit www.gamstop.co.uk.
