Responsible Gambling
Understanding the Risks
Engaging with online entertainment services that involve regulated play can carry certain risks, especially when users lose track of time, emotions or personal limits.
Key risks to watch out for include:
- Losing control over time spent online;
- Emotional strain or impulsive decisions;
- Using services as a way to escape stress or problems;
- Reducing attention to financial and personal boundaries;
- Ignoring signs of fatigue or overload.
Mindfulness is key to a healthy and balanced use of such platforms.
Tips for Responsible Play
To maintain a comfortable and safe interaction, we recommend:
Set personal limits
Be clear about how much time you are willing to spend online and stick to this plan.
Take regular breaks
Short breaks help you stay in control, avoid emotional pressure and maintain clarity of thought.
Don't use online services to deal with stress
If you feel emotionally drained, it's best to take a break and seek support.
Use control tools
Many licensed UK platforms offer reminders and personal limits.
Monitor your own well-being
If you feel tired, irritable or out of control, it's a signal to take a break or seek help.
Support & Professional Resources
If you need advice or support, reach out to reputable organizations that help people manage their online gambling.
