Set the Limit Before the Fun, Not After: Prestige Casino Responsible Gambling
You must be 18+ to play, and every Prestige Casino account comes with deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders, cooling-off periods and self-exclusion.
Where do limits and help sit here?
Five lines settle the age, the licence, the national register, the helpline and where to write.
What you gain when the ceiling is set
After this block you know which five controls sit in the account and when each one earns its place.
Set the ceiling first
Before it turns sour
Let the clock tell you
Time away, kept open
Is closing the account enough?
Straight to the controls
Log in and open the responsible gambling area of your account settings. Check you are in the section covering limits rather than notifications.
Pick your ceiling
Choose whether to cap deposits or losses. Deposits suit steady spending, while losses suit the amount you are willing to see go.
Set the figure and span
Give the figure you can afford and select a day, week or month. Read the period back before you continue, because it changes how much the figure means.
The final screen
Approve the change and check the confirmation screen shows your new figure. Ask our team at any point if a step looks unclear.
Stop and look at how play sits with you
Catching these signs early keeps a bad week from becoming a bad year. A deposit limit or a short pause is the simplest first step, and either one can be set from your account today.
Read down this list and count how many feel familiar right now.
- Chasing a loss with a bigger deposit
- Spending money set aside for bills
- Playing longer than you planned, again
- Hiding how much time or money goes in
- Feeling restless when you cannot play
- Borrowing to keep playing
- Play crowding out sleep, work or people

Pick a break sized to what you need
Hours or days away. Set a cooling-off period in your account and you step away for hours or days without losing your balance or your account. Ask live chat to start one and playing is blocked until the period ends.
The long-term account closure. Choose self-exclusion in your account when you want a much longer stop, and it cannot be lifted early. Live chat sets it up; until it runs out you cannot deposit, play or reopen the account.
Do I have to register with GAMSTOP? GAMSTOP is the national register run by The National Online Self Exclusion Scheme Limited. Register there and you are blocked from UK-licensed sites for six months at minimum, up to a year or five years; it can take up to a day to apply. gamstop.co.uk
