Recognising a Gambling Problem
Gambling becomes a problem when it negatively impacts your finances, relationships, mental health, or daily life. Common warning signs include:
- Spending more money on gambling than you can afford to lose
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative feelings
- Feeling restless or irritable when not gambling
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
- Lying to family or friends about your gambling habits
- Failing to keep promises to stop or cut back gambling
- Neglecting work, education, or family commitments
- Chasing losses with increasingly larger bets
Tools to Stay in Control
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly on your casino account to control your spending.
Self-Exclusion
Exclude from a single operator or use GamStop to exclude from all UKGC-licensed sites simultaneously.
Reality Checks
Enable session time reminders on your account to track how long you have been playing and how much you have spent.
Cool-Off Period
Take a short break — most UKGC operators allow temporary cool-off periods of 24 hours to 6 weeks.
Our Commitment to Safe Gambling
UKPlayRewards.com only lists casinos that are fully licensed by the UK Gambling Commission and that offer comprehensive responsible gambling tools, including GamStop integration, deposit limits, and robust self-exclusion options.
