Play responsibly, stay in control

Gambling always carries the risk of financial loss. Treat betting as paid entertainment, not a way to make money. Your wellbeing comes first.

• Decide your budget before playing and stick to it.
• In your Agent No Wager account, set deposit, loss, and stake limits.
• Turn on reality checks and session reminders.
• Plan breaks and set a daily cut-off time.
• Never chase losses or try to win back money.
• Avoid gambling when tired, stressed, or after drinking.
• Keep rent, bills, and savings separate from gambling funds.
• Use product blocks or temporary cool-off periods.
• Review your play history and monthly statements.
• Seek help early if control becomes difficult.

Problem gambling can build gradually. Knowing the warning signs helps you act early.

• Spending more time or money on gambling than planned.
• Chasing losses or increasing stakes to feel the same excitement.
• Hiding play or lying about betting activity.
• Borrowing money, using credit, or selling items to gamble.
• Feeling anxious, low, or irritable when not playing.
• Neglecting work, studies, or family responsibilities.
• Struggling to pay bills due to gambling.
• Repeated failed attempts to cut down or stop.
• Thinking about gambling most of the day.
• Gambling to escape stress, loneliness, or problems.

Gambling addiction is a serious condition that needs attention and support.

You can take clear steps to reduce harm and stabilise your play. Platform tools and independent services can help.

• Set or lower deposit, loss, and session limits in your account.
• Enable reality checks and schedule regular breaks.
• Take a time-out from 24 hours to several weeks.
• Choose self-exclusion for at least 6 months and register with GAMSTOP to block UK operators.
• Install blocking software such as Gamban or Betblocker across your devices.
• Ask Agent No Wager Support to remove you from marketing and apply additional restrictions.
• Ask your bank to enable a gambling block on your cards and apps.
• Withdraw money you plan to keep and avoid chasing returns.
• Share your plan with a trusted person for accountability.
• Speak to your GP or a specialist service for structured help.
