Responsible Gambling Tools At Wintino Casino
Play only from 18, and every Wintino Casino account comes with deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders, time-out periods and self-exclusion.
The Essentials, In Plain Terms
Use this table when you want the rules, the register and the helpline in one place.
Choose Your Own Ceiling
It answers the worry that a limit is buried, hard to find or awkward to request.
Cap it before you start
Loss limits
When the hours slip by
A deliberate breather
Longer-term self-exclusion
Open your profile menu
Open the profile menu from the top of the lobby, using the email address you registered with. Check the name shown there is yours before going further.
Check what is already active
Inside the profile, find the section headed limits and controls. Read what is listed there, because any limit already active takes priority over a fresh one.
An ordinary month
Pick deposit, loss or session time, and pick an amount or interval that fits an ordinary month. Ask whether you would be comfortable with that figure after a win as well.
After confirmation, before play
Confirm the setting, then look for a message or on-screen note showing the limit now in force. Save or screenshot that confirmation in case you want to refer to it.
Pause, exclusion, national register
Paused play, kept balance. A short pause in the account covers hours or days rather than months: deposits and play stop for the window you choose, while your profile and balance stay where they are. You switch it on from the limits screen and confirm it before the next session.
No early way back. Longer and firmer, self-exclusion in the account closes play and deposits for a fixed term, and nothing reopens it early, however the week has gone. The same limits screen sets it, and then it stays put.
One form, every operator. GAMSTOP is the national online self-exclusion scheme, run by The National Online Self Exclusion Scheme Limited. One online form closes your accounts at every operator that must take part, for six months at the least and up to five years, with up to 24 hours before it applies. gamstop.co.uk
A calm voice at any hour
National Gambling Helpline (GamCare)
Outside the account, free advisers answer at any hour, any day, and the conversation stays private. They explain your options and point players and relatives to local support. 0808 8020 133 gamcare.org.uk
Gamblers Anonymous
Peer-led meetings, free and open to family as well as players, run without appointments; the group also takes calls on its phone line. gamblersanonymous.org.uk
Before it costs you, not after
Noticing early is cheaper than noticing late. A limit or a pause, set in the account before the next session, is the simplest first step, and it costs nothing but a few minutes of honesty.
These are questions about your own week, not a verdict on anyone.
- Chasing a loss into the next evening
- Spending money set aside for bills
- Playing longer than you planned, again
- Hiding sessions from your partner
- Borrowing to keep the account topped up
- Feeling flat when you are not playing
- Promising yourself a stop, then going back
