Player tools

Safer gambling tools in the UK

UKGC-licensed operators must offer a standard set of player-protection tools. You can activate most of them from account settings without contacting support.

Deposit and loss limits

Cap how much you can fund your account per day, week or month. Loss limits stop play once net losses hit a threshold. Decreases take effect immediately; increases may wait 24 hours.

Session time reminders

Reality checks pop up after a set interval showing time spent and net position. They do not block play unless you also set a hard session limit.

Time-outs and self-exclusion

A time-out pauses your account for 24 hours to six weeks at a single operator. GamStop covers all UK-licensed sites for longer periods. See our responsible gambling page.

Account history

Operators must provide transaction and session history on request. Reviewing this data helps you spot patterns before they become problems.
