Responsible Gambling

Set limits before you start

Every SA-licensed sportsbook on DiskiOdds lets you set deposit, loss, stake and session-time limits in your account settings. Use them. They’re the single most effective safeguard against chasing losses.

• Decide your weekly budget before kick-off — not after.
• Set a deposit limit at your operator and lock it for 7 days.
• Use the in-app reality check / time-out features.
• Never bet on credit, never borrow to bet.

Warning signs

Gambling has become a problem when one or more of the following is true:

• You bet more than you can afford to lose.
• You hide bets or losses from a partner or family.
• You chase losses with bigger stakes hoping to recover.
• You miss work, school or social commitments to bet.
• You feel anxious, depressed or restless when not betting.

Any of these — call 0800 006 008 today. The conversation is free and confidential.

Self-exclusion

Every NGB-licensed operator must offer voluntary self-exclusion. You can lock yourself out of your account for a fixed period or permanently. Once self-excluded, the bookmaker is legally obliged to refuse your bets. Ask in account settings or request via customer support.

For friends & family

If you’re worried about someone close to you, you don’t have to confront them alone. The NRGP helpline (0800 006 008) offers guidance for partners and family members too. SADAG (0800 567 567) can help with the emotional weight that often accompanies a gambling problem.

Bet within your means. Take breaks. The match will still be there tomorrow.
