Responsible Gaming

At glaisers.com, we believe gambling should always be a form of entertainment — never a way to earn money, escape problems, or cope with stress. Crypto casinos can be fun when played responsibly, but gambling always carries risk. Only ever gamble with money you can afford to lose, set limits before you start, and never view gambling as an investment or a source of income. The information on this page is here to help you stay in control and to point you toward professional support if you need it.

Age Verification

You must be 18 years of age or older to gamble legally in Great Britain. It is a criminal offence for anyone under 18 to gamble, and for any operator to knowingly allow a minor to gamble.

• All licensed casinos featured on glaisers.com are required to verify the age and identity of their customers before allowing deposits or withdrawals.
• If you share a device with minors, use parental control software such as Net Nanny or CyberPatrol, and never leave gambling accounts logged in.
• Keep your account passwords, crypto wallet keys, and payment details secure and out of reach of children.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. If you recognise several of the following signs in yourself or someone you care about, it may be time to seek help:

• Chasing losses — gambling more to try to win back money you have lost.
• Hiding your gambling — lying to family or friends about how much time or money you spend gambling.
• Gambling with money you cannot afford — using funds meant for rent, bills, food, or borrowing money to gamble.
• Increasing your stakes — needing to bet larger amounts to feel the same excitement.
• Preoccupation — constantly thinking about gambling, planning your next session, or reliving past wins.
• Neglecting responsibilities — missing work, study, or family commitments because of gambling.
• Mood changes — feeling anxious, irritable, guilty, or depressed about your gambling.
• Using gambling as an escape — gambling to avoid stress, loneliness, or difficult emotions.
• Failed attempts to stop — trying to cut down or quit but being unable to.

Self-Help Tools

Licensed operators offer a range of tools to help you stay in control. We strongly encourage you to set these up before you start playing:

• Deposit limits — cap how much money you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly.
• Loss limits — set a maximum amount you are prepared to lose over a set period.
• Wagering limits — restrict the total amount you can bet in a given timeframe.
• Session time limits — control how long you can play in a single session.
• Reality checks — on-screen reminders showing how long you have been playing and how much you have spent.
• Cooling-off / time-out periods — take a short break from gambling, from 24 hours up to several weeks.
• Self-exclusion — block yourself from a casino for a longer period (six months or more), or use GAMSTOP to self-exclude from all UK-licensed online gambling operators at once.

Note on crypto casinos: some cryptocurrency casinos operate without a UK Gambling Commission licence, which means they may not offer the same protections, and GAMSTOP self-exclusion will not apply to them. We recommend always checking an operator's licence status before playing.
