Responsible Gaming

Responsible Gambling

At Paddy Power Casino, we prioritize your well-being and encourage you to maintain safe and balanced gaming habits.

Gambling as Entertainment

Remember that gambling should be enjoyed responsibly as entertainment rather than a source of income. It's essential to understand the odds, risks, and potential outcomes involved in each game or activity.

Budget and Bankroll Management

To ensure your enjoyment remains within limits:

  • Set realistic budget targets before playing.
  • Monitor your bankroll closely to avoid overspending.
  • Take regular breaks to assess your spending habits.
  • Don't chase losses by increasing bets or depositing more funds.

Deposit, Loss, Wager, and Session Limits

We offer various tools to help you control your gaming experience:

  • Set daily/weekly/monthly deposit limits through our account management features.
  • Activate loss limits to prevent significant losses from occurring in a single session.
  • Establish wager limits for individual games or overall accounts.
  • Utilize time-out periods (24-96 hours) or self-exclusion tools (up to 5 years on product or all services).

Reality Checks and Time Reminders

To monitor your gaming activities more effectively:

  • Activate reality checks, which display information about your session duration, deposits, bets, and losses.
  • Receive customizable time reminders to alert you when it's time for a break.

Cooling-off Periods and Self-Exclusion Tools

If needed, take advantage of our cooling-off periods (24 hours) or self-exclusion tools to temporarily block access:

  • Cooling-off period: A 24-hour pause on all gaming activities.
  • Self-exclusion tool: Permanently exclude yourself from Paddy Power Casino for up to 5 years.

Account Verification and Age Restrictions

We strictly adhere to age restrictions (18+) and account verification processes to ensure your safety and compliance:

  • Verify your identity through our secure system before opening an account or initiating a withdrawal.
  • Confirm that you are over the required age limit (18) when registering for an account.

We prioritize safeguarding vulnerable players by offering tools and resources to help prevent problematic gaming behavior, including those on:

  • Self-exclusion programs
  • Cooling-off periods
  • Deposit limits
