Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At pancanappg.org.uk, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you choose to gamble, please do so within your means and in control of your finances.

Age Verification

All users must be 18 years of age or older to access gambling services in the UK. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age. If you are under 18, please do not use any betting apps or engage in gambling activities.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be aware of the following warning signs:

• Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Lying to family, friends, or others about your gambling habits
• Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
• Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce or stop gambling
• Using gambling to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, or other emotional problems
• Experiencing repeated failed attempts to control or stop gambling
• Losing relationships or job opportunities due to gambling

Self-Help Tools

Most reputable betting apps offer tools to help you maintain control. These include:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period
• Loss Limits: Restrict the amount you can lose in a given timeframe
• Reality Checks: Receive notifications reminding you how long you have been gambling
• Time-Out/Cool-Off Periods: Temporarily suspend your account for a set period
• Self-Exclusion: Permanently or temporarily close your account if you feel you have lost control

If your chosen betting app does not offer these features, we recommend selecting a different provider.
