Decide limits before participating
Only adults who meet the rules applicable to their location should consider using gambling services. Gambling involves a risk of losing money and must not be treated as income, savings or a way to clear debt. Keep housing, food, bills and other essential spending separate.
Set a time limit and an affordable loss limit before starting. Stop when either is reached. Do not chase losses, borrow money to participate or increase stakes because of pressure. Taking a break or choosing not to participate is a valid decision.
Recognise pressure and use available controls
Warning signs include hiding activity, neglecting responsibilities, spending more than planned or feeling unable to stop. Ask the provider about account limits, cooling-off and self-exclusion options. Remove saved payment methods and consider device-level blocking tools where appropriate.
If gambling affects your wellbeing, relationships or finances, seek qualified support in your area and involve a person you trust. This page is general information, not clinical advice. Provider tools and local services should be checked directly for current availability.
