Tips for Safe Play
Follow these simple guidelines to keep your gaming enjoyable and under control:
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose – never use funds needed for bills, rent or essential living costs;
- Set a strict budget before you start playing and stick to it;
- Take regular breaks – gambling should never replace other hobbies, family time or work;
- Never chase your losses; accept that every game has an element of chance;
- Avoid gambling when you are tired, stressed, upset or under the influence of alcohol or drugs;
- Do not treat gambling as a way to pay debts or solve financial problems;
- Monitor your playing time and spending regularly.
Our Responsible Gaming Tools
Golden Mister provides a full range of self-limitation tools that you can activate instantly in your account settings under “Responsible Gaming”. These tools are designed to put you in complete control.
Deposit, Loss and Spending Limits
Set daily, weekly or monthly limits on deposits, losses or total spending. Once your limit is reached, you will be prevented from spending more until the period resets. You can lower limits immediately; increases take 24 hours to activate for your protection.
Time-Out (Cool-Off Period)
Need a short break? Choose a Time-Out from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. During this period your account will be locked and you will not be able to deposit or play. No marketing communications will be sent.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel you need a longer break, you can self-exclude for 6 months, 1 year or permanently. Once activated, your account is closed and you will be unable to reopen it until the exclusion period ends. For UK-wide protection across multiple operators, we strongly recommend registering with GAMSTOP (the national self-exclusion scheme) in addition to our site tools.
You can activate or adjust any of these tools 24/7 via your account. If you need help setting them up, our customer support team is available.
Self-Assessment Questionnaire
Answer the following questions honestly. This short questionnaire is not a formal diagnosis but can help you understand whether gambling is becoming a problem.
- Have you needed to gamble with larger amounts of money to feel the same excitement?
- Have you tried to cut down or stop gambling but found it difficult?
- Do you feel restless or irritable when trying to reduce your gambling?
- Do you gamble to escape worry, stress, depression or low mood?
- After losing money, do you return another day to try to win it back (“chasing losses”)?
- Have you lied to family, friends or others about how much you gamble?
- Has your gambling caused arguments, problems at work or difficulties in important relationships?
- Have you borrowed money or sold items to finance your gambling?
If you answered “Yes” to three or more questions, we strongly encourage you to speak to someone today. You are not alone, and help is available.
