Responsible Gaming at LottoGo
At LottoGo UK, player safety is a core part of how we operate. Casino play is entertainment, not a way to generate income. We are committed to providing you with the tools and information you need to stay in control of your gambling activity. You can set personal limits, access self-exclusion options, and reach verified support services at any time. If you ever feel your gambling is becoming a concern, a range of practical controls is available to help you manage your play responsibly.
Responsible Gaming Principles
Safe casino play starts with a few straightforward habits. Set a budget before you start, and treat that amount as the cost of entertainment. Take regular breaks to maintain perspective. Never chase losses; each session should be independent. Keep gambling separate from your finances, relationships, and daily responsibilities. If gambling stops feeling like leisure, it is a signal to pause and reassess.
Responsible Gaming Tools
LottoGo provides account controls that help you manage your casino activity and stay within your personal limits. These tools are available through your account settings or by contacting customer support.

Signs of Problem Gambling
Identifying a change in your gambling behaviour at an early stage gives you the best opportunity to seek support and regain control. The following signs are commonly associated with problematic gambling and are intended for educational purposes only.
- Chasing losses by continuing to play in order to recover money already lost;
- Spending more than your planned budget on a regular basis;
- Difficulty stopping or reducing your gambling, even when you intend to;
- Hiding gambling activity from family members or close friends;
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling;
- Gambling interfering with your work, studies, or personal relationships;
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or low in mood when not gambling.
Self-Exclusion and Account Restrictions
Self-exclusion and account restrictions are designed to give you a firm boundary when you need a break from gambling. These options are available to all registered players and can be requested at any time.
- Cooling-Off Period: Temporarily suspend your account for a short, defined period; access is restored automatically when the period ends;
- Self-Exclusion: Exclude yourself from your LottoGo account for a minimum period; during this time your account cannot be accessed and marketing communications are suppressed;
- GamStop Registration: As a UK-licensed operator, LottoGo is registered with GamStop, the national self-exclusion scheme; registering with GamStop applies your exclusion across all participating UK-licensed gambling sites simultaneously;
- Account Closure: Request permanent closure of your account at any time through customer support.
Protecting Minors
Preventing access by anyone under the age of 18 is a fundamental obligation for any UK-licensed casino operator. LottoGo applies verified measures to ensure its platform remains age-restricted.
- Age Verification at Registration: All new players must confirm they are aged 18 or over before creating an account;
- Identity Verification: LottoGo uses third-party identity checks to verify the age and identity of players; additional documentation may be requested at any point;
- Gambling Commission Compliance: LottoGo holds a licence from the UK Gambling Commission, which requires strict adherence to age-verification standards;
- Parental Control Software: Parents and guardians can use independent filtering tools such as NetNanny or Gamban to restrict access to gambling sites on shared devices.
