Betting should stay a leisure activity, never a source of stress or a way to make a living. Here are some markers to stay in control.
Our tips
- Set a gambling budget and never exceed it.
- Never bet money you need for essential expenses.
- Don't chase losses by betting more.
- Take breaks and set time limits.
Warning signs
You play more than planned, you borrow to bet, or gambling affects your mood and relationships: these are signals to take seriously.
Available tools
Most platforms offer deposit limits, stake limits and self-exclusion. Use them without hesitation.
Strictly 18 and over. If gambling becomes a problem, talk to someone you trust or a professional.
