Our Commitment

Casino Welcome Offers only lists casinos licensed by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC). We do not list unlicensed or offshore casinos. All casinos on our site are required to offer responsible gambling tools including deposit limits, loss limits, session time limits, and self-exclusion.

Safer Gambling Tools

Deposit Limits

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit on how much you can deposit. Once set, limits can only be reduced immediately — increases take 24 hours to take effect.

Loss Limits

Cap the amount you can lose in a given period. A useful tool if you find yourself chasing losses.

Session Time Limits

Set a maximum session length. The casino will notify you when your time is up and log you out automatically.

Reality Checks

Regular pop-up reminders showing how long you've been playing and how much you've won or lost.

Self-Exclusion

Exclude yourself from a single casino for a minimum of 6 months. For a UK-wide exclusion, use GamStop.

Cooling-Off Period

Take a short break from gambling — 24 hours, 1 week, or 1 month — without fully self-excluding.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Spending more than you can afford to lose

Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble

Chasing losses — trying to win back money you've lost

Gambling affecting your relationships, work, or mental health

Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling

Lying to friends or family about how much you gamble

Neglecting responsibilities to spend more time gambling

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please reach out for help. Support is free, confidential, and available 24/7.
