Responsible gambling
Staying in control at the casinos we rank
Nobody under 18 may hold an account at any of the eight brands listed here. The sensible way to budget is to fix the figure you are willing to lose before the account is funded, and to treat it as the cost of the evening rather than as money you expect back.
The signs worth watching for are raising stakes to recover a losing session, playing outside the hours you planned, and keeping the time spent to yourself. Deposit, loss and session limits sit in the account settings at all eight brands. A tighter limit takes effect straight away; a looser one waits out a cooling-off period, which is the point of setting it early.
