Responsible Gambling

Our Commitment

At Top IE Casino, we believe that gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money or escape problems. We are committed to promoting responsible gambling and helping players stay in control.

Recognize the Warning Signs

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Be aware of these warning signs:

  • Gambling with money you can't afford to lose
  • Spending more time or money gambling than intended
  • Chasing losses or gambling to recover money
  • Lying to family or friends about gambling
  • Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities
  • Feeling anxious, depressed, or guilty about gambling
  • Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
  • Thinking about gambling constantly

If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, it's important to seek help immediately.

Set Limits and Stay in Control

Responsible gambling starts with setting limits before you play:

  • Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly
  • Loss Limits: Decide how much you're willing to lose and stop when you reach that limit
  • Time Limits: Set a time limit for gambling sessions and stick to it
  • Reality Checks: Use alerts that remind you how long you've been playing

Most reputable online casinos offer tools to help you set these limits. Use them.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that gambling is becoming a problem, self-exclusion can help. Self-exclusion means voluntarily blocking yourself from gambling sites for a set period.

How to self-exclude:

  • Individual Casino Self-Exclusion: Most casinos allow you to self-exclude directly through your account settings
  • National Self-Exclusion: While Ireland doesn't yet have a national self-exclusion register like the UK's GamStop, you can self-exclude from individual operators
  • Support Organizations: Contact Problem Gambling Ireland or Gamblers Anonymous for guidance

Underage Gambling Prevention

18+

Gambling is strictly prohibited for anyone under 18 in Ireland. It is illegal for minors to gamble online, and reputable casinos enforce strict age verification procedures.

Parents and guardians: Monitor your children's internet use and consider using parental control software to block gambling sites. Talk openly with young people about the risks of gambling.

Tips to Stay in Control

  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose—never gamble with rent, bills, or essential expenses
  • Set a budget before you start and stick to it
  • Take regular breaks during gambling sessions
  • Never chase losses—accept losses as the cost of entertainment
  • Don't gamble when you're upset, depressed, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs
  • Balance gambling with other activities and hobbies
  • Don't borrow money to gamble
  • Keep track of the time and money you spend gambling
  • Don't see gambling as a way to make money or solve financial problems
  • Seek help early if you think gambling is becoming a problem
