Responsible Gambling

Last update: January 31, 2025

Interactive AF values its users and aims to provide a safe experience while browsing our website at top15casinosireland.com. We want you to enjoy the best experiences with top gambling websites in the UK, while helping ensure betting does not cause harm. We do not want gambling to get out of control or negatively impact your life.

Below you can find practical tools, information, tips and resources to help you keep gambling enjoyable and responsible.

Our responsible gambling policy focuses on the impact of gambling and is guided by three key principles:

• Prevent problem gambling
• Prevent underage gambling
• Support gambling that is fair and transparent

Responsible gambling means staying within your personal limits. While there are generally accepted indicators of problem gambling, the limits are different for each person. For example, a bet that feels large for one player may be manageable for another. It depends on your budget and bankroll. In practice, responsible gambling is playing in a way that does not harm you financially, mentally, or socially.

Please consider the tools and tips below to reduce the risk of difficulties.

Managing your money is a core part of responsible gambling. Bankroll management is setting a budget based on what you can comfortably afford to lose. If you treat online gaming in any form (bingo, betting, or casino) as entertainment, it can feel more like spending on an evening out - similar to a restaurant, nightclub, or cinema.

When you request a withdrawal, some sites allow you to reverse or cancel that request. Certain operators also offer a manual flushing option that prevents you from reversing the withdrawal. This can help stop you from spending winnings after you have cashed out. If you find it hard to resist reversing withdrawals, consider operators with short pending periods and those that offer manual flushing.

Preventing underage gambling is a key part of our activity. This website is intended only for people aged 18+ (as indicated in the site footer). While we clearly state this requirement, there is a limit to what we can do to stop underage access.

In many cases, the most effective control is age verification, and some operators only enforce this during prize redemptions. As a parent or guardian, you should help prevent unauthorised use.

Tips to reduce underage interaction with our website and other gambling services:

• Avoid visiting these websites in the presence of children to reduce curiosity and interest.
• Do not use the “remember me” option when logging into gambling operator accounts.
• If children use your card for online payments, ensure you know what they are paying for.
• Find an appropriate way to talk with them about gambling.
• Learn the signs of addiction and stay alert to them.

To comply with UKGC regulations, gaming sites may provide some or all of the following self-exclusion features:

• Time Out and reality checks: Set alerts that show how long you have been active or automatically log you out.
• Account limits: Restrict deposits and betting activity by setting daily, weekly, or monthly limits.
• Self-exclusion: Temporarily freeze your account when you need a break, typically from 12 hours up to six months.
• Account closure: Permanently close your account. Some options allow exclusion across a network of sites and IP blocking.

Self-awareness is often an early step in addressing a potential issue. Signs can differ from one person to another, but common indicators include:

• Feeling a constant compulsion to gamble
• Being secretive about betting habits
• Spending more than you can afford
• Borrowing money to fund betting
• Losing sleep due to gambling
• Concern expressed by family or friends

If you have taken steps to protect yourself and feel you need additional help, there are free organisations that can provide support and counselling. Under UKGC licensing conditions, sites typically link to one of the following:

• GambleAware
• Mind.org
• GamCare
• Gamstop

Online gaming can be a legitimate and enjoyable leisure activity, but it is important to set boundaries for money and time, and to know where to get help if needed.
