Play only from 18+, and the deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders, cooling-off periods and self-exclusion sit in every account.
This block settles the age, the licence and the places to turn to for help.

A deposit limit caps how much you can add to the account over a chosen spell, so a planned night stays planned. Switch it on before your first deposit, while the budget is still a decision rather than a reaction.
A loss limit stops the session once your net losses reach a figure you picked earlier. Put it in place at the start of a session, when you are thinking about the week rather than the last spin.
Session reminders nudge you when a stretch of play has passed, so a short visit does not quietly become a long one. Turn them on if you lose track of time once you are in the games.
A cooling-off period pauses the account for a while without closing it, and it suits the week when other things need your attention. Take one before play starts feeling like a chore you owe yourself.
Self-exclusion closes the account to gameplay for a longer stretch and can run alongside the national register. Choose it when you want distance from the casino rather than a short break.
Use these steps on the day you decide a number should hold, before the next deposit.
Open your profile from the menu at the top of the screen, then check that you are signed in to the account you actually play from.
In the profile, find the limits section and read the tools listed there before you change anything, so you know what is already switched on.
Pick deposit, loss or session time; a deposit limit suits money, a loss limit suits a full night and session time suits the hours you have.
Enter the figure or the time, then choose day, week or month so the limit matches how you actually budget rather than a single evening.
Confirm the change and check the summary screen shows the limit you meant; a figure you did not intend can be corrected in the same section.
