What is responsible gambling?

Responsible gambling means keeping betting as a limited form of entertainment — where you make the decisions, not the platform. At William Hill, Responsible Gambling It means knowing your financial limits, keeping track of your time, and understanding when to stop.

Betting can be a genuinely fun experience — backing your team in a cricket match or predicting a football result. But the moment you start seeing it as a source of income or a way to chase losses, that's when it becomes a problem.

William Hill believes betting should be:

  • For Entertainment — not as an alternative source of income
  • Within Your Means — Without the Fear of Losing
  • Within Reasonable Limits — not at the expense of other responsibilities
  • Voluntary — not driven by stress or emotion

Remember: The first rule of responsible gaming: never bet with money you can't afford to lose.

How to Set Your Limits

Setting your limits before you start betting is the most effective way to stay in control. At William Hill, it's straightforward:

  • 1
    Log In to Your Account

    Click on your profile icon in the top right corner.

  • 2
    Go to "Responsible Gambling" Settings

    From the profile menu, select the "Responsible Betting" or "Responsible Gaming" option.

  • 3
    Choose the Type of Limit

    Choose whichever works for you — a deposit limit, a betting limit, or a session limit.

  • 4
    Set Your Amount & Duration

    Set a limit for any timeframe — daily, weekly, or monthly.

  • 5
    Confirm

    Lowering a limit takes effect immediately. Increasing one requires a 24-hour waiting period — this is intentional, so decisions aren't made impulsively in the heat of the moment.

Set aside a maximum of 2%–5% of your monthly income as your entertainment budget and only use that amount for betting.

  • Never share your betting account details with family members.
  • Have an open conversation with your child about responsible money management and the risks of betting.

FAQs

Everything You Want to Know About Responsible Gambling

Yes, reducing your deposit limit takes effect immediately. However, if you want to increase it, there is a 24-hour waiting period. This is intentional — it's designed to prevent impulsive decisions made in the heat of the moment.

During self-exclusion, betting and deposits are disabled. However, you can contact support to withdraw any remaining balance. Our team will assist you in completing the withdrawal safely.

With Reality Check, you decide the interval — for example, every 30 minutes or every hour. When that time is up, a popup will let you know how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered in total. You can then choose to continue or stop.

Start by having a calm, honest conversation — lead with empathy, not blame. Encourage them to reach out to William Hill Support, or contact us yourself by email. If the situation seems serious, consider seeking professional mental health support.

No. Once a self-exclusion period ends, your account is not reactivated automatically. You must contact support, after which a 7-day reflection period applies. Your account can only be reactivated after that period.
