Responsible Gaming at Dazzle

Clear facts about our tools, our limits and where to get free, independent support if gambling stops being fun.

Playing safely at Dazzle

Last updated: September 14, 2026

This page explains what Dazzle can and cannot offer players in terms of protection, and where to find independent, professional support in the UK. Read it before you deposit, not after.

Important facts you should know before you play

We want to be direct about something many sites bury in small print. Dazzle is not licensed by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC), and Dazzle does not form part of the GamStop self-exclusion scheme. GamStop is a free UK service that lets a person block their access to UKGC-licensed gambling sites for a set period. Because Dazzle sits outside that scheme, registering with GamStop will not block your access to Dazzle, and using Dazzle will not count towards or interfere with any GamStop exclusion you have set on other sites.

Full details of Dazzle's current licensing position are published in the site footer. Please confirm them there before you play. Nothing on this page should be read as implying UKGC licensing or GamStop participation, because neither applies to Dazzle at this time.

Tools we offer to help you stay in control

Even without UKGC licensing, we build internal controls into the Dazzle account area because player wellbeing matters to us regardless of regulatory category. These tools sit in your account settings and can be adjusted by contacting support.

  • Deposit limits: set a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much you can add to your balance.
  • Loss limits: cap the net amount you can lose across a chosen period.
  • Session reminders: pop-up notices after a set amount of play time, so sessions don't run unnoticed.
  • Time-out: a short cooling-off period, from 24 hours up to 30 days, during which your account is frozen.
  • Self-exclusion: a longer-term account closure that you control through our support team, separate from and in addition to any GamStop exclusion you may hold elsewhere.
  • Reality checks: a running summary of time and spend shown during play on request.

To activate any of these, email or message our support team and ask specifically for the limit or exclusion you want. We recommend setting a deposit limit the same day you register, before your first deposit, rather than waiting until later.

Free, independent support in the UK

GamCare and BeGambleAware are independent UK organisations, not part of Dazzle. They offer confidential advice whether or not gambling is currently a problem for you, and their services are free.

Independent UK support contacts
OrganisationContactWhat they offer
GamCare0808 8020 133, https://www.gamcare.org.uk/Free helpline, live chat, structured support and treatment referral, open extended hours daily
BeGambleAwarehttps://www.begambleaware.org/Information, self-assessment tools and links to local and national support services

GamCare's helpline on 0808 8020 133 is free to call from UK landlines and mobiles. Both organisations can talk you through options including GamStop, local counselling and structured treatment programmes, and neither will ask you to stop using any particular site as a condition of getting help.

Recognising the signs

Gambling can become a problem gradually. Common warning signs include chasing losses with bigger bets, spending more time or money than you planned, borrowing to fund play, hiding your activity from people close to you, or feeling anxious or irritable when you try to stop. None of these signs need to be extreme before they are worth acting on.

Age and account verification

Dazzle is restricted to players aged 18 and over. We may ask for identity or age verification documents at registration or before a withdrawal is processed. This is a standard step, not a sign of a problem with your account, and is designed to keep the platform restricted to eligible adults.

If you are ready to set limits from day one, you can register here and configure your account controls immediately after signing up.
