Responsible gambling

Betting should never be about making money or escaping problems. If it stops being fun, these free services can help.

Betting should be fun

Treat betting as entertainment you pay for, not a way to make money. Bookmakers build a margin into every price, and over time most bettors lose.

Simple rules that help

  • Set a budget and a time limit before you start.
  • Never chase losses or borrow to bet.
  • Don't bet when you're upset, stressed or drinking.
  • Use your bookmaker's deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion.

Signs it may be becoming a problem

  • Spending more than you planned or can afford.
  • Hiding your betting from people close to you.
  • Betting to win back losses or to escape problems.
