In shortSet a deposit limit in your account's safer gambling settings; you are also prompted when you sign up.

Setting one

  1. Open your account settings.
  2. Find safer gambling or limits.
  3. Choose daily, weekly or monthly.
  4. Enter an amount you could afford to lose in full.
  5. Confirm.

Raising and lowering

A lower limit applies at once. An increase takes effect only after a cooling-off period, and you must confirm it again.

Across casinos

A limit at one casino does not apply at another. Set one at each.

A five-minute routine before you deposit

Confirm the operator on the public register. In the terms, find the customer funds rating and the dispute resolution service. Read the welcome offer's wagering, deadline and payment exclusions, or decide to decline it. Set a deposit limit. Verify your identity. Five minutes, once per casino, removes most of the ways an account goes wrong.

What we have and have not tested

Licence numbers and operators were confirmed on the public register, regulatory actions against Commission announcements, and offer terms from each casino's published conditions. Game counts, live studios, apps and withdrawal times are reported by independent reviewers and labelled as such. We have not opened real-money accounts, so we cannot tell you from experience how any of these casinos handles a withdrawal or a complaint. That limit is stated on every page it affects.

What makes an online casino a UK casino

Not its address or its branding, but its licence. An online casino may offer gambling to people in Great Britain only if its operator holds a remote operating licence from the Gambling Commission. That licence brings binding rules: identity checks before play, bonus wagering capped at ten times, slot stakes capped at £5, no credit cards, tested games, a named dispute resolution service and membership of GAMSTOP. Every casino site, slot site and live casino described on this page is judged first on that.
