Responsible Play

Gambling should be entertainment – nothing more. ZebraJackpot is a UK casino comparison site and does not operate any casino itself, but we still want to remind every visitor that there are risks involved whenever real money is on the line.

This page gives simple guidance, links to help and a few warning signs to watch out for when you gamble online.

Simple rules of healthy play

Only play with money you can comfortably afford to lose.
Decide your budget and time limit before you start.
Never chase losses – tomorrow is not “owed” to you.
Do not gamble when angry, stressed, tired or under the influence.
Keep gambling separate from bills, savings and essential spending.

If it stops being fun, it’s already a sign to step away.

Tools offered by UK-licensed casinos

Operators licensed by the UKGC must offer safer-gambling tools. They differ by brand, but usually include:

Deposit limits – cap what you can put in per day, week or month.
Reality checks – on-screen reminders of how long you have been playing.
Time-outs – short breaks if you need to pause your account.
Self-exclusion – longer-term blocking of your access to the casino.

You will find details of these options on each casino’s responsible gambling or account settings pages.

Warning signs to look out for

You may be at risk of developing a gambling problem if you recognise things like:

Spending more time or money on gambling than you planned.
Hiding gambling from friends or family.
Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling.
Feeling anxious, guilty or low after sessions – but still going back.
Using gambling to escape everyday problems or moods.

Getting help and support

You do not have to handle this alone. If you are worried about your own gambling, or about someone close to you, there are organisations in the UK that can help:

BeGambleAware.org – information, tools and confidential support options.
GamCare – free helpline and live chat support for people affected by gambling.
GAMSTOP – a free self-exclusion service for most UK-licensed online gambling sites.

If you feel at immediate risk of harm, contact local emergency services or a medical professional straight away.
