Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At Verywell Casino, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as entertainment – similar to going to the cinema or watching a sports event. It should never be considered a way to earn money or solve financial problems.
Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and always set strict limits on how much time and money you spend gambling. If gambling stops being fun, it's time to seek help.
Age Verification
Gambling in the UK is only legal for individuals aged 18 years and over. We take age verification seriously and conduct robust checks to ensure all our players meet this requirement.
If you are under 18, or if you know a minor who is gambling, please contact the relevant authorities or support organisations listed below.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do you recognise any of the following warning signs in yourself or someone you know?
- Spending more time or money gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to win back money
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount spent
- Experiencing mood changes after gambling (irritability, anxiety, depression)
- Using gambling as a way to escape problems or relieve stress
- Neglecting work, education, family, or social relationships due to gambling
- Borrowing money or accumulating debt to fund gambling
- Failed attempts to cut down or stop gambling
- Feeling restless or anxious when not gambling
- Gambling with increasing amounts to achieve the same excitement
If you've ticked any of these boxes, please reach out for support today.
