Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At cbocgwp.co.uk, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Betting should never be viewed as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older to gamble on our site. This is a legal requirement in the United Kingdom and enforced in accordance with gambling regulations.
We are committed to preventing underage gambling. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to register or place bets on Betway or any other gambling platform.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you experience any of the following, you may be developing a gambling problem. Please seek help immediately:
- Chasing losses — continuing to gamble to recover money you've lost
- Hiding your gambling activities from family, friends, or partners
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, food, bills)
- Experiencing anxiety, guilt, or shame about your gambling
- Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts to feel the same excitement
- Neglecting work, school, hobbies, or relationships due to gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Mood swings or irritability when unable to gamble
- Lying to others about the amount of time or money spent gambling
If you recognise these signs in yourself, take action now.

We provide a range of tools to help you gamble responsibly and maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount of money you can deposit within a chosen time period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a specific timeframe.
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders during your gaming session about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent.
