Before play

Set money and time limits first.

Choose a fixed budget and session length before you open an account. Keep essential money separate. Stop when either limit is reached.

Write down the money limit and end time before play. Keep the note where it is easy to see. Do not move either limit during the session. If the plan stops working, close the account screen and seek help.

Useful answers

MGA casino questions

What is a practical gambling budget?

Choose a fixed amount of spare money before play. Never use money needed for rent, food, bills, debt or savings. Do not raise the amount after a loss. End the session when the limit is reached.

Which account tools can create distance from gambling?

Deposit and spend limits can add useful barriers. Session alerts and cooling-off tools can also help. The tools may differ by operator. Check the account controls early and use a stronger limit when a reminder is not enough.

What should someone do if gambling stops feeling controlled?

Stop playing and depositing. Create distance from the account. Speak with a trusted person or a qualified support service. Seek expert help when gambling affects money, mood, work, relationships or the ability to follow a limit.

Can family members seek support too?

Yes. Harm can affect partners, relatives and friends. Support services can explain warning signs and help with money or personal limits. They can also help a family find suitable local or expert care. Family members do not need to handle the problem alone.
