Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At UK Casino Reviews, responsible gambling is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that online gambling should be a form of entertainment, not a way to make money. We are committed to promoting safe gambling practices and ensuring our readers have access to the tools and information they need to stay in control.

Signs of Problem Gambling

Chasing Losses

Continuing to gamble to try to win back money you've lost, often betting more than you can afford.

Spending Beyond Your Means

Using money meant for bills, rent, or essentials to fund gambling activities.

Hiding Your Gambling

Lying to family or friends about how much time or money you spend gambling.

Neglecting Responsibilities

Missing work, neglecting relationships, or ignoring daily responsibilities due to gambling.

Feeling Anxious or Irritable

Experiencing anxiety, restlessness, or irritability when trying to cut down or stop gambling.

Borrowing Money

Taking loans, borrowing from friends, or using credit cards to fund gambling activities.

Tips for Safe Gambling

1

Set a Budget

Decide how much you can afford to lose before you start playing. Never gamble with money you can't afford to lose.

2

Set Time Limits

Use casino time-limit tools to keep track of how long you've been playing. Take regular breaks.

3

Never Chase Losses

If you're on a losing streak, walk away. Chasing losses almost always leads to bigger losses.

4

Don't Gamble When Emotional

Avoid gambling when you're stressed, depressed, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

5

Use Self-Exclusion Tools

If you feel you need a break, use GAMSTOP to self-exclude from all UK-licensed online gambling sites.

6

Keep Gambling Fun

Remember that gambling is entertainment, not a source of income. If it stops being fun, stop playing.

Self-Exclusion & Player Tools

All UK-licensed casinos are required to offer responsible gambling tools. These include:

  • Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you can deposit.
  • Loss Limits: Set limits on how much you can lose within a specific period.
  • Session Time Limits: Set reminders or automatic logouts after a set period.
  • Reality Checks: Receive regular pop-ups showing how long you've been playing and your net position.
  • Cool-Off Periods: Take a short break from gambling (24 hours to 6 weeks).
  • Self-Exclusion: Block yourself from a casino for 6 months to 5 years.
