Responsible Gaming

Gambling Should Be Entertainment

At Verywell Casino, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While casino games can be fun and exciting, it's important to approach them with realistic expectations and in control of your spending.

Please gamble responsibly and within your means. If you feel that your gambling is becoming problematic, help is available.

Age Verification

In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to gamble legally. Verywell Casino is strictly for players aged 18+. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity to confirm your age.

If you are under 18, please do not attempt to register or use our services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please check yourself against these warning signs:

• Chasing Losses: Continuing to gamble to recover money you've lost
• Hiding Gambling: Concealing the extent of your gambling from family or friends
• Inability to Stop: Finding it difficult to control or reduce your gambling
• Neglecting Responsibilities: Gambling is affecting work, relationships, or financial obligations
• Increasing Stakes: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
• Mood Changes: Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when unable to gamble
• Financial Problems: Borrowing money or using savings to fund gambling
• Loss of Interest: Other hobbies and activities are becoming less important
• Lying About Gambling: Dishonest about the time or money spent gambling

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

Verywell Casino is committed to providing tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount of money you're willing to deposit within a specified time period
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount of money you're willing to lose within a specified time period

• Reality Checks: Set reminders to help you keep track of how long and how much you've been gambling
