You can ask a business to exclude you from gambling with them for a set length of time – usually between six months and five years. This is called self-exclusion. It means you will be refused service from these venues and websites. Gambling businesses must offer this option by law. If you think self-exclusion could work for you, make sure you exclude yourself from all the places where you may be tempted to gamble.

GamCare does not operate any of the following self-exclusion schemes.

Self-exclusion from Online Gambling

www.gamstop.co.uk

Registering for GAMSTOP will block you from online logging into or setting up gambling accounts with businesses licensed in Great Britain if you are a UK resident. It is a free service. You can register for 6 months, 1 year or 5 years. As part of our TalkBanStop campaign, we recommend registering for free Gamban blocking software for your devices as well as excluding yourself through GAMSTOP.

Self-exclusion from just one gambling website or app:

Go to the website of the gambling business.

Find a page called ‘Responsible Gambling’ or ‘Safer Gambling’.

Follow the instructions for self-exclusion.

If you cannot find out how to self-exclude, contact the company’s customer services.

Self-exclusion from one arcade, betting shop or casino:

Visit the venue you want to self-exclude from.

Speak to the shop manager or a member of staff, let them know you want to self-exclude. You don’t need to take any money, bank or credit cards with you. Take a couple of passport size photos to go on the form; this can help the staff to identify you.
