Responsible Gambling

At Luckcomparez, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling. We believe that gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems. This page provides important information about responsible gambling and resources for those who need help.

What is Responsible Gambling?

Responsible gambling means gambling in a way that is safe, controlled, and within your means. It involves:

• Only gambling with money you can afford to lose
• Setting limits on how much time and money you spend gambling
• Never chasing losses
• Not gambling when you're upset, angry, or depressed
• Taking regular breaks from gambling
• Keeping gambling as a form of entertainment, not a way to make money

Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Some warning signs include:

• Spending more time or money on gambling than you can afford
• Feeling the need to bet more money more frequently
• Becoming restless or irritable when trying to stop gambling
• Gambling to escape problems or relieve feelings of helplessness or anxiety
• Trying to win back losses by gambling more
• Lying to family members or others about your gambling
• Jeopardizing relationships, jobs, or opportunities because of gambling
• Relying on others to bail you out of financial situations caused by gambling

How to Gamble Responsibly

Set Limits

Before you start gambling, decide how much money and time you can afford to spend. Set a budget and stick to it. Never gamble with money you need for essential expenses like rent, bills, or food.

Take Breaks

Take regular breaks from gambling. Don't gamble for extended periods without stopping. Use tools provided by operators to set session time limits.

Never Chase Losses

If you lose, don't try to win back your losses by gambling more. Chasing losses often leads to bigger losses and can quickly spiral out of control.

Don't Gamble Under the Influence

Avoid gambling when you're under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or when you're feeling emotional, stressed, or depressed. These states can impair your judgment and lead to poor decisions.

Keep It Fun

Remember that gambling should be entertainment, not a way to make money or solve problems. If gambling stops being fun, it's time to stop.

Self-Exclusion Tools

Most licensed operators offer self-exclusion tools that allow you to restrict your access to their services for a set period. These tools can help you take a break from gambling if you feel you need to. You can also use GAMSTOP, a free service that allows you to self-exclude from all UK licensed gambling sites.
