Great Britain Casino Responsible Gambling
At Great Britain Casino, gambling should always be viewed as entertainment rather than a way to make money. Casino games are based on chance, and there is no guaranteed method of winning or recovering losses. Set sensible boundaries before you play and make decisions based on what you can comfortably afford to spend.
Responsible gambling means staying aware of your behaviour, understanding the risks and taking action if playing stops being enjoyable. The information below explains the safeguards available at Great Britain Casino and identifies sources of independent support for anyone affected by gambling.
Our Commitment to Responsible Gambling
Great Britain Casino is committed to providing a safer gambling environment and promoting informed choices. We expect players to use the website for leisure and to treat gambling expenditure as a recreational cost, similar to other forms of entertainment.
We provide tools designed to help you manage your activity, including ways to control deposits, monitor play and take a break. These features are intended to support personal decision-making, but they cannot replace awareness or professional advice. Each player remains responsible for using the available controls and seeking help when needed.
Our approach also recognises that gambling can affect more than the person who plays. Financial pressure, changes in mood, relationship difficulties and reduced performance at work or school can all be signs that additional support may be appropriate.
Recognising Problem Gambling
Gambling may be becoming difficult to control if you spend more time or money than planned, frequently think about gambling, or feel restless when trying to stop. Other warning signs can include chasing losses, borrowing money, hiding gambling from others, neglecting responsibilities or continuing despite negative consequences.
Some people gamble to escape stress, loneliness or low mood. Gambling can then become a response to difficult feelings rather than a chosen leisure activity. A single warning sign does not provide a diagnosis, but repeated or escalating concerns should be taken seriously.
Consider speaking to someone you trust if you notice changes in your behaviour. Taking an early break and reviewing your limits can help you decide whether your gambling remains manageable. If stopping or reducing your play feels difficult, independent professional support is available.
Self-Assessment and Limits
Before playing, consider whether gambling fits comfortably within your financial and personal circumstances. Limits should be realistic, set in advance and treated as firm boundaries. They should never be increased simply to continue playing or attempt to recover previous losses.
- Deposit limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit over a chosen period, such as a day, week or month.
- Loss limits: Decide how much you can afford to lose and stop when that amount has been reached, regardless of the outcome of earlier games.
- Reality checks: Use reminders to review how long you have been playing and how your session is progressing.
- Cooling-off periods: Take a temporary break when you need time away from gambling without closing your account permanently.
- Self-exclusion: Request a longer-term restriction from gambling if you believe that a short break or ordinary limit is not sufficient.
Review your limits periodically, particularly after changes to your income, employment, living arrangements or general wellbeing. A limit is most effective when it is set before a session begins and cannot be changed impulsively during play.
Responsible Gaming Tools
Great Britain Casino provides responsible gaming features to help players monitor and manage their activity on the website. These tools should be used proactively rather than only after a concern has developed.
- Deposit controls allow you to set boundaries around the amount added to your account during a selected period.
- Loss management options help you define an amount that represents the maximum loss you are prepared to accept.
- Session and reality check reminders draw attention to the time spent playing and encourage regular reviews.
- Cooling-off options let you pause access for a selected period and create space away from gambling.
- Self-exclusion support enables you to request a more substantial restriction when you need to stop gambling for an extended period.
- Account activity information helps you review relevant transactions and identify patterns in deposits, withdrawals or play.
If you are unsure how to use a tool, contact the Great Britain Casino support team before continuing to play. Do not use another account or attempt to bypass a restriction. A control can only provide meaningful protection when it is respected.
Support and Assistance
If gambling becomes difficult to control, seek professional help as soon as possible. Speaking openly with a qualified adviser can provide practical guidance without judgement. You can contact Great Britain Casino at [email protected] for questions about account controls, breaks or self-exclusion procedures.
Independent external support is also available from the following organisations. These services are not partners of Great Britain Casino and are not operated by Great Britain Casino:
- GamCare provides information, advice and support for people affected by gambling.
- BeGambleAware offers guidance and resources relating to safer gambling and available support.
- GAMSTOP provides an independent self-exclusion service that can help eligible users restrict access to participating online gambling services.
The National Gambling Helpline can be reached on 0808 8020 133. It is a free, confidential support service available 24 hours a day for anyone affected by gambling, including family members and friends. If gambling is causing immediate danger or a serious personal crisis, contact the appropriate emergency service or urgent health support in your area.
Underage Gambling
Only individuals aged +18 or older may use the website. Great Britain Casino does not permit underage gambling, and age verification checks may be used to confirm that an account holder meets the minimum age requirement.
Do not allow another person to use your account, particularly anyone under 18. Keep your login information private and take reasonable steps to prevent children or other unauthorised users from accessing your device or account. If you suspect that an underage person has attempted to gamble, notify the support team promptly.
Any account activity carried out by an underage person should be reported without delay. Parents and guardians should also consider using device, browser and payment controls to reduce the possibility of access.
Parental Controls
Parental controls can help limit access to gambling websites and applications, although no single technical measure is guaranteed to prevent every form of access. Parents and guardians should use the controls provided by their internet service provider, mobile network, operating system and browser where suitable.
Keep payment cards, digital wallets and account credentials secure. Do not save gambling passwords on shared devices, and consider enabling device passwords or biometric security. Monitoring internet access and discussing the risks of gambling in an age-appropriate way can provide additional protection.
Parental controls are not a substitute for the minimum age requirement. They are an additional precaution intended to reduce the risk of accidental or unauthorised access.
Tips for Staying in Control
- Decide your budget before playing and only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
- Set a time limit and use reminders so that gambling does not interfere with sleep, work, education or relationships.
- Never chase losses or increase stakes because you believe a win is due.
- Do not borrow money, use essential household funds or sell possessions to finance gambling.
- Avoid gambling when you are angry, distressed, tired or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
- Take regular breaks and maintain other activities, interests and social commitments.
- Keep track of deposits, withdrawals and time spent playing rather than relying on memory.
- Do not treat gambling as a source of income, a solution to financial problems or a way to repay debts.
- Talk to a trusted person if your gambling habits change or begin to concern you.
- Use cooling-off or self-exclusion facilities promptly if ordinary limits are no longer enough.
Changes to This Policy
Great Britain Casino may update this responsible gambling policy to reflect changes to the website, available tools, operational practices or relevant guidance. The current version will be made available on the website, and players should review it from time to time.
Any change will not reduce the importance of personal responsibility or remove the need to seek assistance when gambling causes concern. If you have questions about this policy or the responsible gambling features available to you, contact the support team before continuing to play.
