Responsible Gaming

Gambling Should Be Entertainment

At Castlefield Print, we believe that online casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Gambling always carries a risk of loss, and you should never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.

We are committed to promoting responsible gaming and supporting our players in maintaining a safe and enjoyable gaming experience.

Age Verification

All online casino operators in the UK are legally required to verify that players are aged 18 or over. If you are under 18, you must not gamble or attempt to access casino services.

In accordance with UK Gambling Commission regulations, all casinos we recommend conduct strict age verification checks during account registration.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Please be aware of these warning signs and seek help if any apply to you:

• Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
• Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover lost money
• Neglecting family, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
• Hiding your gambling activity from friends or family
• Feeling anxious or irritable when not gambling
• Borrowing money to gamble
• Experiencing financial difficulties or debt related to gambling
• Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
• Trying unsuccessfully to reduce or stop gambling
• Using gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or other problems

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please reach out for support.

Self-Help Tools & Controls

Responsible casinos provide tools to help you manage your gaming. These include:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit over a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose in a given timeframe
• Reality Checks: Receive pop-up reminders during gaming sessions to help you stay aware of time and money spent
• Time-Out/Cool-Off Period: Temporarily suspend your account for a set period (typically 24 hours to 6 weeks)
• Self-Exclusion: Permanently or temporarily exclude yourself from playing at a casino

We recommend using these tools proactively, even if you feel you have your gambling under control.
