Responsible Gaming
Introduction to Responsible Gaming
At Right Annuity, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed purely as entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Online casino games are games of chance with unpredictable outcomes, and the house always has a mathematical advantage. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never view it as an investment or income source.
If you choose to play at non-UK licensed casinos, please do so responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
Gambling is only for adults. You must be at least 18 years old (or the legal age in your jurisdiction) to gamble. All licensed operators are required to verify your age before allowing access. If you are under the legal age, please do not attempt to gamble.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Be aware of these common warning signs. If you recognise any of these behaviours in yourself or someone you know, seek help immediately:
- Chasing losses: Trying to win back money you've lost by gambling more
- Hiding gambling: Concealing the extent of your gambling from friends, family, or partners
- Loss of control: Gambling longer or with more money than intended
- Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family commitments due to gambling
- Financial problems: Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
- Mood changes: Becoming anxious, irritable, or depressed when unable to gamble
- Escalation: Needing to gamble with increasing amounts for the same excitement
- Failed attempts to stop: Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or quit gambling
- Using gambling to escape: Gambling to cope with stress, anxiety, or other emotional problems
Self-Help Tools
Most reputable online casinos offer tools to help you maintain control over your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit on how much you can deposit
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose in a specified period
- Betting Limits: Control the size of individual bets or wagers
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic notifications reminding you how long you've been playing
- Time-Out (Cool-Off Period): Temporarily suspend your account for hours or days
- Self-Exclusion: Permanently or temporarily close your account to prevent gambling
- Account Pause: Freeze your account until you choose to reactivate it
Use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits.
