Safer Gambling – You’re in safe hands

Having a flutter on Lottoland’s huge selection of lottos, scratchcards and slot games can be a lot of fun! However, it’s our number one priority to keep you safe when you play with us. That’s why we wanted to tell you a little bit more about Safer Gambling at Lottoland.

Safer Gambling means staying in control, keeping on top of the time you spend playing and never spending more than what you can afford. Win or lose, we’re here for you, and we have a range of tools on hand, should you ever need them. We’d definitely encourage you to take a look! You’ll be able to find some top tips in this section, along with links to great organisations who are there to help. Be sure to check them out, and if you want a chat right now, just say “Hi” to our Support Team here.

Safer Gambling Tools

Deposit limits

Control your spending by using our deposit limit tool! You can set a daily, weekly or monthly deposit limit. Any decrease to your deposit limit will be implemented straight away. However, any request to increase your limit will initially undergo a 24-hour cooling off period. This gives you some time to review your decision.

Time – OUT

Feel like you’re in control of your gambling, but want to take a break? Then call for a time-out. Choose a time period between 24hrs, 1 week or 1 month and you won’t be able to re-open your account until your selected time period is over.

Self–Exclusion

If you think your gambling is getting out of control, we recommend self-exclusion. This option allows you to exclude yourself from our services for a period ranging from 6 months to 5 years. We’ll process your request and send you confirmation as soon as possible. Once your account is self-excluded, you won’t have access to your account and we’ll also take reasonable steps to ensure we remove you from our marketing databases; as well as blocking registered payment methods. Any request to extend your current self–exclusion can be made by contacting our support team HERE. Should you want to return from a self-exclusion once your chosen time period has ended, just reach out to our Support Team. A 24-hour cool–off period will follow.

Should you feel like increasing your self–exclusion period, be aware that you can do so at any time by contacting our Customer Support Team by email or telephone. Note that once a self–exclusion period has been chosen, we won’t be able to decrease or reactivate your account until such period of time has elapsed.

Reality Check

Control the time you play by using our Reality Check tool! This feature will allow you to set a limit on your session and be informed once you have reached that limit. If you would like to activate a Reality Check on you account, please contact our Customer Support Team and they will have it activated for you! They will let you know once it is active.
