Responsible gambling.
This page explains the tools and free support available if betting ever stops feeling fun and affordable — for you or someone you know.
Terrace Bets only recommends betting sites properly licensed and regulated in the UK, so you can stick with trusted operators and avoid unlicensed ones. You must be 18 or over to gamble legally in the UK. Set personal limits, take regular breaks and only wager money you can afford to lose — staying in control is what keeps betting safe and enjoyable.
Set your limits before you play.
Cap how much you can deposit per day, week or month. Decreases apply instantly.
Take a break from 24 hours up to six weeks, during which your account is locked.
Block yourself for six months to five years. GamStop applies it across every UK site at once.
