If you’d like to find out more about responsible gambling at Casino442 then make sure to read our guide below!
Why Gamble Responsibly?
The main reason that we encourage you to gamble responsibly at Casino442 is that our games are designed to be fun. Gambling addictions can start to form over time, and you can put your family and your finances at risk. This is why it is important to get ahead of the issue and protect yourself before things escalate.
When the fun stops, you should stop playing but sometimes this is easier said than done. Make sure to gamble responsibly and you can continue to play all of your favourite games.
Now, we are going to talk to you about some of the features that we have for you.
Time-Out
Do you ever think that you could do with a time-out when you are playing casino games? At Casino442 we recognise that this is the case and so you can do exactly that right here on our site. Simply set your time-out for up to 42 days and we will keep your account protected while you take a break.
Deposit Limits
When you first sign up to Casino442, we encourage you to set a deposit limit on your account. You can decide whether you want to set a daily, a weekly or a monthly limit on your account and how much you want to set this for. If you change your mind later on, once you start playing on the site – you can adjust this to suit your spending habits.
We don’t just let you limit the amount that you spend on Casino442, we also allow you to limit how long you play on our site. Do you think that you are spending too long playing one game? Simply adjust your limits and we’ll let you know once you’ve reached these. This is a really helpful tool so make sure to give it a try.
Self-Exclusion
We want our players to stick around on our site to enjoy our games but if it really comes to it, you can exclude yourself when you need to. The length of time that you exclude yourself is down to you but there is usually a minimum period of 6 months so make sure to have a read over the terms and conditions carefully before making any kind of serious decision.
We won’t be able to let you back on our site before the time is up but if this is something that you need to do then make sure to get in touch.
Need A Reality Check?
If the sound of excluding yourself for months at a time doesn’t sound very appealing – we totally get it. This is why we offer another tool that is really handy and can help you to keep track of what you are doing. This is called a reality check and it works using a time counter on the screen.
This will allow you to set a timeframe that you want to stick to for a certain game. Once you have reached this – you won’t be able to play the game during this session. This is a great way of saying ‘hey, are you sure you still want to play?’ and letting you do the deciding. This helps to keep the games fun and let you stay in control of your cash.
GAMSTOP
The most extreme level of responsible gambling tools that we offer here at Casino442 is the GAMSTOP tool. This will not only block you from playing at our site, but it will also block you from playing at any of the other licensed casino sites in the UK. To do this, you will need to head over to the GAMSTOP site, and they will take care of things for you.
As we have mentioned, this is an extreme measure but sometimes it can be necessary. Make sure to consider this carefully before making any kind of decision.

What To Do If You Think You Have A Problem
If you do find that you have a problem with your gambling, then you might want to do more than just make some changes on your account. It is always a good idea to talk to someone who might be able to help whether that is a friend, a family member or even a stranger.
If you don’t have someone that you can talk to, you’ll be happy to hear that there are plenty of charities and services that you can use to talk to someone who can help. Make sure to get in touch with organisations like GamCare and Gamblers Anonymous for more information.
