Get help nowPrefer a phone line? Most countries have a free national gambling helpline. A quick search finds yours.
Gambling has never been easier to start, or harder to keep track of.
Most of it happens on a phone now, in private, with no record of what was spent or how it felt afterward. This page is for anyone who wants one.
Read this list slowly. If any of it sounds like you, that is information worth keeping.
- You play longer than you meant to, often.
- You play to get back what you've lost.
- You hide how much you spend from someone close to you.
- You borrow money to play, or to pay off what you played with.
- You feel restless or irritable when you try to stop.
- The thought of stopping makes you feel relieved and afraid in the same breath.
Cut yourself off, on your own terms.
Most licensed operators offer self-exclusion: a request you sign that blocks you from your own account for a fixed period. Some let you set deposit caps directly inside the app. Use both.
Tell one person you trust. The block on your account is much easier to keep than the block on your own mind.
Tilted helps with the second part. A helpline helps with the first.
