Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Fun, Not a Financial Solution

At spaceappsexeter.org, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming. Casino games and online gambling should only ever be viewed as entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. The house always has a mathematical advantage, and you should only ever gamble with money you can afford to lose.

Please gamble responsibly and within your means.

Age Verification

In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to gamble legally. We take age verification seriously and do not permit access to gambling services for anyone under the legal age limit.

If you are under 18, you must not use any casino services or betting platforms linked from this website.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop quickly. Be honest with yourself and look out for these warning signs:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
• Gambling with money meant for essentials (rent, bills, food)
• Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
• Neglecting work, study, hobbies, or relationships due to gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling
• Needing to gamble larger amounts to get the same thrill
• Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
• Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
• Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
• Thinking constantly about gambling or past gambling sessions

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Controls

Most reputable online casinos offer tools to help you maintain control. These include:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a session
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders during gaming sessions about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
• Time Limits: Set automatic session time limits after which you're logged out
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from an operator's platform
• GamStop Self-Exclusion: Use the national multi-operator self-exclusion scheme (see below)

Use these tools proactively. They're there to protect you.
