Responsible gambling

Gambling is for adults only. It is a way to spend money, not to make it, and it can become a problem.

Where to get help

These organisations are independent of SpinBandits and of the casinos listed here.

Wherever you live

  • Gambling Therapy — a free online service with practical advice and emotional support, open to people in any country.

For UK residents

  • GamCare — advisers by phone on 0808 8020 133, live chat and WhatsApp, at any hour.
  • GambleAware — free advice, tools and support. Its support services are for people living in Great Britain.

TODO: confirm which countries the site is aimed at and add the national helpline for each, with details checked against the organisation's own website.

Staying in control

  • Decide how much money and time you can afford before you start, and stop when you reach it.
  • Never gamble with money you need for rent, bills or food, and never with borrowed money.
  • Do not try to win back what you have lost.
  • Do not gamble when you are upset, stressed or have been drinking.

Many casinos let you set deposit limits, take a time-out or exclude yourself from your account. If you cannot find these settings, ask the casino's support for them.

Signs that gambling is becoming a problem

  • Spending more money or time on gambling than you meant to.
  • Hiding your gambling from people close to you.
  • Borrowing money, or leaving bills unpaid, in order to gamble.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable or low when you try to stop.

If any of these sound familiar, talk to one of the organisations above.

Under 18

This site is for adults. You must be at least 18 to gamble online, and older than that in some countries.
