Responsible Gaming

At Verywell Casino UK we believe that online gambling should always remain a form of entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems. This page outlines our approach to responsible gaming and provides guidance and resources for anyone who may be worried about their gambling behaviour.

Our Role

Verywell Casino UK is an independent comparison and review site. We do not operate an online casino or handle player funds. However, because we provide information about gambling services, we take our responsibility seriously and promote safe and informed play.

We strongly encourage all visitors to gamble only with licensed operators in their jurisdiction and to use the responsible gambling tools available on those sites.

Staying in Control

Consider the following principles before you start gambling online:

Set a budget and stick to it. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
Set time limits for your gambling sessions.
Never chase losses or increase stakes to win money back.
Do not gamble when you are stressed, upset, under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
Treat any winnings as a bonus, not as guaranteed income.

If gambling stops being fun or starts to affect your work, relationships or finances, it may be time to take a break and seek help.

Tools Offered by Operators

Most regulated casino and betting sites provide responsible gambling tools such as:

Deposit limits (daily, weekly or monthly);
Loss limits and wager limits;
Reality checks and session reminders;
Time-outs and cooling-off periods;
Self-exclusion options for longer breaks.

We recommend using these tools proactively. Check the responsible gambling section of any operator you join to understand what protections are available.

Signs of Problem Gambling

You may be experiencing gambling problems if you recognise several of the following signs:

Spending more money or time on gambling than you planned;
Hiding gambling activity from family or friends;
Borrowing money to gamble or to cover gambling debts;
Feeling anxious, guilty or depressed about gambling;
Gambling to escape difficulties in other areas of life.

If these signs sound familiar, we encourage you to seek professional advice as soon as possible.

Where to Get Help

If you are based in the UK or other eligible regions, independent organisations can offer free, confidential support:

National or local gambling helplines;
Counselling services specialising in gambling addiction;
Self-help groups and online resources.

Please consult official resources in your country for the most relevant contact details. If you feel your gambling is out of control, seek professional help immediately and consider self-excluding from all gambling sites.
