Responsible Gaming
BresBet UK is committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling for all punters
Our Commitment to Responsible Gambling
At BresBet UK, we believe that gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment. We are dedicated to providing a safe and responsible gaming environment for all our punters. We understand that while most people gamble responsibly, some may develop problems. That's why we offer various tools and resources to help you stay in control of your betting activity and gamble within your means.
1. Gambling Responsibly
Responsible gambling means staying in control and keeping gambling as a fun leisure activity. At BresBet UK, we encourage all punters to set limits before they start betting and to never gamble with money they cannot afford to lose. Gambling should never be seen as a way to make money or solve financial problems. If gambling stops being fun, it's time to stop.
Tips for Responsible Gambling
Follow these guidelines to help maintain control of your betting activity:
- Set a budget before you start and stick to it
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
- Set time limits for your betting sessions
- Take regular breaks during your betting sessions
- Never chase your losses - accept that losing is part of gambling
- Don't gamble when you're upset, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol
- Balance gambling with other leisure activities
- Never borrow money to gamble
2. Responsible Gaming Tools
BresBet UK provides a range of tools to help you manage your betting activity and stay in control. These tools are available in your account settings and can be activated at any time. Our responsible gaming features are designed to give you full control over your gambling experience.

- Enter your preferred limit amount or duration
- Confirm your selection
Note: Decreasing limits takes effect immediately, while increasing limits requires a 24-hour cooling-off period to take effect.
3. Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of age, background, or financial status. It's important to recognise the warning signs early so you can take action before gambling becomes a serious issue. At BresBet UK, we encourage all punters to be honest with themselves about their gambling behaviour.
Warning Signs
You may have a gambling problem if you:
- Spend more money on gambling than you can afford to lose
- Chase losses by trying to win back money you've lost
- Lie to family or friends about your gambling activity
- Feel anxious, stressed, or depressed about your gambling
- Gamble to escape problems or relieve negative feelings
- Borrow money or sell possessions to fund gambling
- Find it difficult to stop gambling once you've started
- Neglect work, studies, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Have arguments with family or friends about money and gambling
- Think about gambling constantly, even when doing other activities
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately. Problem gambling is treatable, and support is available.
4. Self-Exclusion Options
If you feel that you need to take a break from gambling, BresBet UK offers several self-exclusion options. Self-exclusion is a voluntary measure that restricts your access to your betting account for a specified period or indefinitely.
Cooling-Off Period
A short break from gambling. You can set a cooling-off period of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, you won't be able to access your account or place bets.
Self-Exclusion
For longer breaks, you can self-exclude from BresBet UK for periods of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or 5 years. During self-exclusion, your account will be closed, and you won't be able to open a new one.
GamStop - National Self-Exclusion
GamStop is the UK's national self-exclusion scheme. When you register with GamStop, you will be excluded from all UK-licensed online gambling websites and apps for a period of your choice (6 months, 1 year, or 5 years). As a UKGC licensed operator, BresBet UK is fully integrated with GamStop.
