Staying in Control

An important word on responsible gambling

While many people enjoy gambling, it can be addictive and, for some, gambling comes at a cost. At Comparasino, we only feature operators licensed by the UK Gambling Commission who are committed to the BGC 7th Edition Industry Code.

Your Mandatory Protection Toolkit:

All our featured brands are required by law to provide these tools to help you stay in control. We recommend setting these up the moment you join:

Deposit Limits: Manage your budget by setting daily, weekly or monthly spending caps.
Reality Checks: Automated alerts to keep you informed of your session duration.
Time-Outs: Instantly take a break from your account for 24 hours up to six weeks.
Wagering Transparency: We only list brands compliant with the Jan 19, 2026 regulations, ensuring bonus wagering is capped at a maximum of 10x.

Support & Self-Exclusion (TalkBanStop)

If gambling is starting to grip you, or if you simply want to step away, use the TalkBanStop approach, the national standard for effective protection:

  • TALK: For free, confidential advice 24/7, call the National Gambling Helpline at 0808 8020 133 (Click to call), operated by GamCare.
  • BAN: Install GamBan on your devices to block access to thousands of global gambling sites and apps.
  • STOP: Register for GAMSTOP. This is a free service that allows you to self-exclude from all UK-licensed online gambling companies in a single step.
