Wagerlio wants gambling to stay entertainment. Gambling is strictly for adults aged 18 and over and should always be within your means.
Tools that keep you in control
- Deposit and spend limits
- Time and session limits with reality checks
- Cool-off periods
- A clear overview of wins and losses
- Self-exclusion
GAMSTOP self-exclusion
GAMSTOP is the free national online self-exclusion scheme. Registering at gamstop.co.uk blocks you from all UK-licensed gambling sites for the period you choose. From October 2025, UK players must also set a deposit limit before their first deposit.
Blocking software
Gamban (gamban.com) blocks gambling apps and websites across your devices, and many banks let you switch on a gambling block on your cards.
Where to find help
The National Gambling Helpline is free on 0808 8020 133, 24/7, run by GamCare (gamcare.org.uk). You can also use TalkBanStop, contact Gordon Moody (gordonmoody.org.uk) or Gamblers Anonymous UK.
