Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Fun, Not a Financial Strategy
At Wild and Free Cornwall, we believe that casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling should never be viewed as a way to make money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. Always gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never chase losses or bet more than you planned.
Please play responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older to gamble in the UK. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to access gambling services.
Parents and guardians: if you're concerned about a young person's online activity, please speak to them about the risks of gambling.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a problem with gambling:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity from friends, family, or partners
- Feeling anxious or irritable when not gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Neglecting work, school, or personal relationships due to gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling or gambling debts
- Lying about the amount of money spent on gambling
- Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
If any of these apply to you, please reach out for support immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Controls
Most reputable online casinos, including those recommended on our site, offer built-in tools to help you gamble responsibly:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a set period
- Reality Checks: Receive pop-up reminders during gaming sessions showing how long you've been playing
- Time-Out: Take a break from gambling for a set period (hours, days, or weeks)
- Self-Exclusion: Exclude yourself from an individual casino for an extended period
We encourage you to use these tools proactively as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
