Understanding gambling and its potential risks
At National Casino, gambling is leisure, not a shortcut to income. Chance decides outcomes, and losses are possible on any day. When play stops being light and starts to feel urgent or secret, risk is rising. Keep an eye on time, mood, and money. Visit National Casino for guidance on safer play and ways to set limits that suit you.
Our commitment to safer gambling
At National Casino, we aim for clarity and control. Rules are stated in plain terms, and safer-gambling tools are easy to find. We focus on early signs of harm and respond when concerns appear. If gambling starts to affect health, work, or family life, we encourage a pause and a review of limits. Support routes and practical steps are always visible inside your account.
Practical tips for responsible gambling
To reduce risk, set boundaries before you play. Keep records of deposits and wins so reality stays clear. Plan breaks and switch activities often. If emotions run hot, stop and return another day.
- Treat gambling as a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money.
- Set clear limits on the time and money you spend on gambling.
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
- Avoid chasing losses, and know when to stop.
- Refrain from gambling while under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
Tools to help manage your gambling
At Nationalcasinoapp.uk, account tools help you track and control play. Set deposit caps by day, week, or month. Turn on session reminders so time does not slip. Reality checks display elapsed play and recent results. If you need a pause, choose a cooling-off period. If you need a firmer boundary, request self-exclusion. Our Support Team can guide the process when you want help choosing the right option.
Self-exclusion program
If control feels difficult, use self-exclusion. This is a voluntary block that locks access for a set time. Choose a term from six months up to five years, or request a permanent block. During exclusion you cannot deposit or play. Use this window to review finances, speak with a counsellor, and plan a return to healthy routines if you decide to come back later.
Implementation and monitoring of self-exclusion
After you confirm self-exclusion with our Support Team, the block starts as soon as it is processed. Keep confirmation notes and times for your records. If you think the block is not active or is incomplete, contact Support at once so it can be fixed. Consider adding device-level blocks and ad filters for extra coverage on browsers and apps.
Protecting minors and vulnerable players
Nationalcasinoapp.uk does not permit underage play. Secure your account with strong passwords and log out after each session. Do not store card data on shared devices. Use parental controls and content filters where children may have access. If someone in your home is vulnerable due to health or finances, keep gambling separate and private, and keep limits strict.
