Responsible gambling

• Choose a loss limit you can comfortably afford and do not increase it after play begins.
• Set deposit, stake and time limits using your betting operator’s tools.
• Keep gambling money separate from rent, food, school fees, transport, savings and debt payments.
• Track total deposits and withdrawals—not only individual wins.
• Take regular breaks and avoid gambling when distressed, angry, tired or affected by alcohol or drugs.

Do not borrow, sell essential belongings or use credit to gamble. Stop when the planned limit is reached, regardless of recent results.

• Spending more money or time than intended.
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about losses.
• Borrowing, missing bills or using essential funds.
• Feeling restless, anxious or irritable when trying to stop.
• Gambling to escape stress, or repeatedly trying to recover losses.
• Damage to work, study, health or relationships.

1. Stop betting and tell someone you trust.
2. Use the operator’s deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion tools.
3. Remove gambling apps, promotional messages and saved payment methods.
4. Ask your bank or payment provider whether gambling-payment controls are available.
5. Contact a licensed gambling-support service or a qualified local healthcare professional.
