Limits and reminders
Deposit, loss, and session timers that are easy to set and adjust without support delays.
Responsible play
Stay in control every session
Our role is to help you play for fun, spot risks early, and know how to pause or stop.
Safer gambling fundamentals
- Set deposit, loss, and time limits before you start.
- Only play with money you can afford to lose; never borrow to gamble.
- Take breaks and log out when tired, stressed, or chasing losses.
- Withdraw wins promptly; keep balances low to avoid impulsive play.
- Use self-exclusion tools if you feel control slipping.
Tools we expect on every listed casino
Self-exclusion
Clear self-exclusion flows with confirmation emails and access blocked across devices.
Reality checks
On-screen timers that show time and spend, with forced breaks if configured.
Link visibility
Responsible gambling links in the header, footer, and account area—never hidden.
Payment transparency
Clear fees, limits, and timelines so withdrawals do not trap balances.
We delist brands that weaken these tools or add friction to stop play. See Player Safety for our enforcement stance.

Device-level blocks

Bank controls
Most banks offer gambling blocks or merchant category restrictions—use them when needed.

National schemes
