Responsible Gambling

Our Commitment

At pickplay.co.uk, we are committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling.

Gambling should be seen as a form of entertainment, never as a way to make money or solve financial problems.

If you ever feel that gambling is no longer enjoyable or starts to create problems, we strongly encourage you to seek professional help.

Understanding the Risks

While gambling can be fun, it carries real risks:

• Gambling outcomes are based on chance — there is no guaranteed win.
• Never gamble more than you can afford to lose.
• Avoid chasing losses or gambling to relieve stress or boredom.
• Keep track of your time and spending.
• If you start losing control, please take a break and use the support options listed below.

Staying in Control

Practical ways to stay safe when gambling:

1. Set a deposit limit or spending cap with your casino account.
2. Take regular breaks — don’t let gambling interfere with work, family, or health.
3. Avoid gambling while upset, tired, or under the influence of alcohol.
4. Treat gambling as entertainment, not as income.

All UK-licensed operators must offer tools to help you control your play, including:

• Deposit limits
• Session time reminders
• Reality checks
• Self-exclusion options
