🚩 Huge bonuses? No checks? No limits? If a gambling offer looks too good to be true, take a step back. These can be warning signs of an illegal gambling website. Check before you bet. Choose a licensed operator.

⚠️ Don’t be drawn into danger. Use a licensed gambling operator. Unlicensed sites don’t offer the same protections. Your money may not be safe, games may not be fair, and winnings may not be paid. Check before you bet. #SGWeek26 #SaferGambling

🔎 Check before you bet: does the website display a Gambling Commission licence number? Licensed operators usually show this at the bottom of their website. You can check the licence on the Gambling Commission’s public register. If you can’t find a licence number, don’t play. #SGWeek26 #SaferGambling

Play smart 🎲 Set a budget. Stick to a time limit. Don't chase losses. Know when to walk away. Gambling is unpredictable. Never treat it as a way to make money.

It's good to take a break 💭 Step away, check in with yourself and take time to think about your gambling habits. You don't have to keep playing. Know when to stop.
