Play Safe
eSports betting should be enjoyable — not stressful and never harmful. Here you’ll find tools, limits, and support options that help keep it that way.
18+ Only
UKGC-licensed sites apply age checks. Underage gambling is unlawful and not permitted.
Use Limits
Deposit, loss, and time limits are required and can help. Set them before you begin.
Step Away
Take a short break (24 hours) or choose self-exclusion for several months. It takes effect straight away.
Built-in safety tools
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps. After setting a higher limit, increases are blocked for 24 hours — this cooling-off period is part of UKGC rules.
On-screen reminders showing how long you’ve been active and your current net result. You can set prompts at 10, 25, or 50-minute intervals.
Take a short time-out (24h – 5 weeks) or opt for full self-exclusion through GamStop. This blocks access across UKGC operators once active.
Quick check-in
Ask yourself: Do I try to win back losses? Have I hidden my betting? Is it affecting my mood or relationships? One “yes” can be a sign to pause. Two or more — consider getting support today.
