Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Safe Gaming

At jo-thompson.co.uk, we believe that casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting the wellbeing of our players.

Age Verification

You must be 18 years of age or older to gamble on our site. This is a legal requirement in Great Britain. We use robust verification processes to ensure all players meet this requirement. If you are under 18, we urge you not to access our casino services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be honest with yourself and watch for these warning signs:

• Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Spending more time or money gambling than intended
• Lying to friends or family about your gambling habits
• Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
• Gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative feelings
• Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
• Feeling irritable or anxious when trying to reduce gambling
• Failed attempts to cut back or quit gambling
• Using gambling as a way to relieve financial pressure

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or a loved one, please seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools

We provide several tools to help you maintain control over your gaming:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Restrict the amount you are willing to lose during a gaming session
• Reality Checks: Receive pop-up notifications during play to remind you how long you have been gaming
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing our site and all affiliated operators
• Account Closure: Request permanent closure of your account at any time

These tools are available in your account settings. We encourage you to use them proactively.
