Responsible Gambling at Jackbit
At Jackbit, we believe that gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment — never a source of financial stress or personal harm. We are committed to promoting responsible gambling across our UK platform in line with Gambling Commission standards. This page outlines the tools, resources, and support available to help you stay in control. If you ever feel that your gambling is becoming a problem, we encourage you to use the tools below or reach out to a specialist organisation. You are never alone, and help is always available.
Our Commitment to Safe Gambling
Jackbit operates under strict responsible gambling obligations. We take our duty of care seriously and actively monitor player behaviour for signs of harm. Our team is trained to identify at-risk players and respond appropriately. We do not target vulnerable individuals with promotions, and we fully cooperate with self-exclusion requests without delay.
Age Restriction & Underage Gambling Prevention
Jackbit strictly enforces the minimum age requirement of 18 years. We use third-party age verification services to confirm the identity and age of all players. If there is any doubt about a user's age, the account will be suspended pending verification. We strongly encourage parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent underage access to gambling sites. Recommended tools include:
- GamBan — blocks access to all online gambling sites
- Net Nanny — family-safe internet filtering
- Betfilter — dedicated gambling blocking software
Self-Control Tools Available on Jackbit
We provide a range of tools to help you manage your gambling activity directly from your account:
- Deposit Limits — set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you can deposit
- Loss Limits — restrict the amount you can lose within a defined period
- Session Time Limits — receive reminders or automatic logouts after a set period of play
- Reality Checks — periodic pop-up notifications showing time spent gambling
- Cool-Off Periods — take a short break from gambling without full exclusion
- Self-Exclusion — close your account for a minimum period with no marketing contact
To activate any of these tools, visit your account settings or contact our support team.
Self-Exclusion & GAMSTOP
If you need a stronger break, you can self-exclude through Jackbit directly or register with GAMSTOP — the UK's national self-exclusion scheme. GAMSTOP allows you to exclude yourself from all UK-licensed gambling operators in one step. Self-exclusion requests made via Jackbit are processed promptly. During exclusion, your account will be closed, all marketing communications will cease, and you will not be able to reopen the account until the exclusion period ends.
Recognising Problem Gambling
It can sometimes be difficult to recognise when gambling has become a problem. Warning signs include:
- Spending more money or time on gambling than intended
- Gambling to recover previous losses
- Neglecting work, relationships, or responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
- Hiding gambling activity from friends or family
If any of these apply to you, we encourage you to seek help immediately.
