Responsible Gaming Policy

We encourage you to play responsibly.

We are dedicated to providing a safe and responsible gambling environment and want to make sure that your time spent with us is fun and sustainable. We do this by:

  • Giving you access to safer gambling tools to help you manage how you play.
  • Developing internal monitoring tools to help you play responsibly.

It is strictly against our rules and it is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 (eighteen), to open an account or to play on Winomania.co.uk. To diminish the chance of underage gambling, we ask for identification and documentation if we suspect a customer is under 18. Although we dedicate a lot of time and resources to ensure there are no minors playing, we feel this prevention works best as a shared responsibility between us and the minor’s parents/guardians. If you are worried that someone underage is using our site, please contact us via our chat or email and we’ll take the necessary steps. You can also use an internet filter to reduce the chance of underage gambling in your home.

We suggest the following guidelines to gambling responsibly:

  • Establish limits for the amount of money you are willing to spend before you start playing.
  • Gambling is not advisable if you are attempting to make up for any prior losses
  • Gambling is not advised if you are in recovery for any dependency or are under the influence of alcohol or any other substance.
  • Gambling is not advised if it interferes with your daily responsibilities.
  • Don't forget that gambling is an entertaining game of chance. There are no systems or formulas that guarantee success.

We provide players with the following options to assist them to gamble responsibly:
