Take Time To Think
Replacing the previous ‘When the fun stops, stop’ campaign, Take Time To Think is a nationwide initiative that aims to signpost Safer Gambling tools at your disposal to ensure you gamble safely and securely within your means.
You can find more details about this initiative here. It’s never too late to Take Time To Think.
Our commitment
At Admiral Casino, we believe that gambling should be an exciting and enjoyable form of entertainment. We’re committed to providing you with the best tools and support to help manage your play and keep your time online safe and within your comfortable limits.
We also have a dedicated Player Protection Team who are on hand to talk to you about our safer gambling tools and features. They are available to talk to you about any aspect of your gambling that may be of concern, from affordability to playing habits.
From time to time, you may be contacted by our Player Protection Team. These contacts ensure that we as an operator can fulfil our promise to keep gambling safe.
If you’d like to discuss any issues or concerns you have regarding your gambling, please contact the Player Protection Team on the following email address: playerprotection@admiralcasino.co.uk.
Playing safe
Our Safety Centre shows you information regarding your recent playing behaviour. It also has a self-assessment so you can compare how much you think you’re playing vs how much you actually are.
We want our players to have fun, so we encourage you to gamble within your limits at all times. Borrowing money to play, spending more than you can afford or using money set aside for other purposes is unwise and can lead to significant problems for yourself and others around you.
Limits
Proactively considering the amount you’d be comfortable to play with has been proven to reduce the likelihood of problem gambling and overspending, so we’d always recommend having some kind of limit active on your account.
That’s why we offer daily, weekly or monthly Net Deposit Limits, which can help you control the amount that you spend. You can set this up easily on our dedicated Limits page.
The Player Protection Team may also apply an additional loss limit to your account and this will be shown on the Limits page as a ‘Net Deposit Safeguard'. If you would like to discuss changing this limit, please contact our Player Protection Team: playerprotection@admiralcasino.co.uk.
How does it work?
Your 'net deposits' are determined by the amount deposited minus the amount withdrawn, within a certain time period. Net deposit limits will prevent you from depositing over the amount set. For example:
• Player Net deposit Limit or Net Deposit Safeguard set = £500 per month
• Monthly Deposits = £300
• Monthly Withdrawals = £100
• £300 (Deposits) minus £100 (Withdrawals) will give you a net monthly position of £200.
In the example above, you would have used £200 of your £500 limit, meaning you would only be able to deposit a further £300, without exceeding the limit amount.
The limits will reset at the following intervals:
Daily - 00:00:00 to 23:59:59
Weekly - Monday to Sunday
Monthly - First to last day of each month
Reality Checks
It’s important to ensure your time online isn’t negatively impacting your duties or responsibilities. To help keep on top of the time you’re spending, reality checks are automatically set to remind you every 60 minutes while you’re playing. We also have the option for these to appear every 30 minutes. To amend the Reality Check settings on your account, visit the Reality Check page or click here to request a call from our Player Protection Team.
Time Out
Placing a Time Out on your account will still allow you to login, however you’ll be unable to play or deposit funds. Time Outs can be used for a range of circumstances and run from 1 day to a maximum of 30 days. Longer customised time periods can be arranged by speaking to the Player Protection Team. Once a Time Out is active on your account, we’re unable to reopen your account until the selected time period has elapsed.
To add a Time Out to your account, see the Exclusions page or click here to request a call from our Player Protection Team.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel you’d benefit from a longer break from gambling, a self-exclusion allows you to block your gaming account from a period of six months.
To set a self-exclusion on your Admiral Casino account, visit the Exclusions page. Alternatively, click here to be contacted by our Player Protection Team.
You can opt for individual self-exclusions with separate websites, or through a national self-exclusion service which blocks multiple providers. Click here to find out more or to sign up with GAMSTOP.
Additionally, The BetBlocker.org is a UK registered charity who offers a free app which can prevent your device from accessing gambling websites. This restriction can be set from 24 hours to 5 years and works across more than 12,500 gambling related websites worldwide.

FAQs About Safer Gambling at Admiral Casino
What measurable steps have you taken in 2025 to improve safer-gambling outcomes (and what were the results)?
In 2025, we have introduced several initiatives to improve safer gambling outcomes:
Deposit Safeguard – Setting a realistic budget for gambling has been proven to reduce the likelihood of overspending. To assist players with their budgeting endeavours, we offer a range of Net Deposit Limit frequencies to suit your needs. After having a big win, it can be difficult to control your spending. That’s why we apply a Gross Deposit Limit to all Admiral Casino accounts upon registration, as an additional layer of protection.
Daily Handbrake – For some players, Safer Gambling tools and resources may be a brand-new concept. This can make it easy to overlook the benefits and protection they provide. If you decide not to set your own Limit when registering with Admiral Casino, we’ll apply a daily Net Deposit Limit for you.
Net Deposit Limit - Your 'net deposits' are determined by the amount deposited minus the amount withdrawn, within a certain period. Net deposit limits will prevent you from depositing over the amount set.
Gross Deposit Limit - Your 'gross deposits' are determined by the total amount deposited, within a certain period. Gross deposit limits will prevent you from depositing over the amount set.
GamProtect – Is a system for participating operators to compliantly and securely share information with other participating operators, of those customers who most need support and protection. Once someone has been identified as being at a high risk of gambling related harm, they will be added to GamProtect and excluded from products and services provided by the operators.
If affordability checks are triggered, what’s the typical document list and average resolution time?
From a Player Protection perspective, we may request information around employment and incomings to assess that the limits in place are affordable for players. This is also the case following a request to increase a Net Deposit Limit on a players account.
Documentation may not always be required for this, however, if we do request documents, this would likely be a bank statement or a payslip. We aim to respond to all queries regarding limits within a 48-time period, however, requests are often handled much sooner than this.
Which safer gambling tools do you offer, and can I set them when I register?
We offer a range of safer gambling tools to help you stay in control of your play:
- Deposit limits – Set the maximum amount you can deposit over a chosen period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
- Reality checks – On-screen reminders showing how long you’ve been playing.
- Time-outs – Take a short break from gambling for 24 hours up to six weeks.
- Self-exclusion – Close your account and block access for at least six months.
When registering a new account, you’ll have the option to set your deposit limit before you start playing. You can update or change your limit anytime in your account settings.
Are you integrated with GAMSTOP, and how can I self-exclude quickly?
Yes. Admiral Casino is fully integrated with GAMSTOP — the UK’s national online self-exclusion scheme.
If you choose to self-exclude, you can visit the GAMSTOP website and complete a short form with your personal details. Once registered, you’ll be prevented from accessing or creating accounts with all UK-licensed online gambling sites and apps for the period you select (6 months, 1 year, or 5 years).
Please make sure the personal details you register with GAMSTOP match those on your gambling accounts, so your exclusion applies correctly.
You’ll also find a link to GAMSTOP and other safer gambling resources at the bottom of our homepage.
What happens to my balance if I self-exclude or close my account?
If you close your account or choose to self-exclude, any remaining balance will be automatically refunded to one of your verified payment methods.
Refunds are normally processed promptly after account closure once standard security checks are complete.
If any payment method has expired or cannot be used, our support team will contact you to arrange an alternative way to return your funds safely.
