24 Betting - Responsible Gaming

24 Betting responsible gaming: how to set deposit and time limits, recognise problem-gambling warning signs, self-exclude, and reach confidential 18+ support helplines.

Play within your limits

At 24 Betting, our online betting app is built for entertainment, and keeping it that way means wagering only what you can genuinely afford to lose. Before every session, set a firm budget, treat it as final, and stop the moment you reach it, regardless of whether you are winning or losing. Never use borrowed money, credit facilities, or funds earmarked for rent, bills, or household essentials.

Build simple habits that keep you grounded: use a phone timer to cap your session length, take regular breaks between bets, and keep a monthly record of deposits and withdrawals so the real numbers stay visible. Betting should remain one leisure activity among many. The moment it starts crowding out work, relationships, or other hobbies, that is a clear signal to pause and reassess.

If you ever feel the urge to chase a loss or stake more than planned, log out immediately. The market will still be there tomorrow. Your financial wellbeing cannot be recovered as easily as a closed betting tab.

Warning signs of problem gambling

Problem gambling rarely appears all at once, it builds quietly over weeks or months. Common behavioural signs include spending more than planned every session, returning immediately after a loss to win money back, hiding betting activity from family members, or neglecting work and social commitments because of time spent wagering.

Financial red flags are equally important: borrowing money to fund bets, missing bill payments, selling possessions, or feeling anxious when checking your bank balance after a session. On the emotional side, needing progressively larger stakes to feel the same excitement, feeling irritable when trying to cut down, or using betting to escape stress or low mood are all signs that gambling has moved beyond harmless fun.

If you recognise two or more of these signs in yourself, or a loved one recognises them in you, act now. The limit tools and support contacts on this page are available to you immediately at no cost.

Deposit, loss and time limits

24 Betting gives every registered user direct access to spending controls inside their account settings. Deposit limits cap how much you can add to your wallet over a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Loss limits cap the total amount you can lose within a chosen timeframe, so a single bad run cannot spiral into a much larger deficit.

Session reminders and time limits let you set a maximum number of minutes per visit. When your chosen time is up, you receive an on-screen alert, and you can configure the account to log out automatically if you prefer a harder boundary. All limits take effect immediately when you lower them. If you choose to raise or remove a limit, a mandatory cooling-off period applies before the change goes live, giving you time to reconsider.

To set or adjust controls, go to My Account → Responsible Gaming → Spending & Time Controls. We encourage every player to configure at least a monthly deposit limit from day one, even if you feel fully in control right now.

Self-exclusion and cool-off

If you need a stronger break, 24 Betting offers two options. A cool-off period temporarily suspends your account for a set duration, 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days, during which you cannot log in, deposit, or place bets. This is ideal when you recognise early warning signs and want to create distance without a permanent commitment.

Self-exclusion is a longer-term measure lasting a minimum of six months and up to five years. Once activated, your account is locked, all marketing communications stop, and re-opening the account before the period ends is not possible. Both options are available under My Account → Responsible Gaming → Self-Exclusion and take effect within minutes of submission.
