Responsible Gaming at MegaDice
At MegaDice, we are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable gaming environment for all our players. We understand that whilst gambling can be an entertaining pastime, it can become problematic for some individuals. As a licensed operator in the United Kingdom, we adhere to strict responsible gambling standards and provide comprehensive tools to help you maintain control over your gaming activities.
Our Responsible Gaming Tools
We offer a comprehensive suite of control features to help you manage your gaming experience:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on how much you can deposit into your account. These limits help you control your spending and can be adjusted with a 24-hour cooling-off period for increases.
- Loss Limits: Establish maximum loss amounts over specific time periods to protect your bankroll and prevent excessive losses.
- Wager Limits: Control the maximum amount you can stake on individual bets or across all games within set timeframes.
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic logout times to ensure you don't spend longer than intended gaming online.
- Reality Checks: Receive regular pop-up reminders showing how long you've been playing and how much you've spent during your session.
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily exclude yourself from accessing your account for periods ranging from 24 hours to 6 months, or request permanent exclusion.
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you decide to stop gambling entirely.
All these tools are easily accessible through your account settings and can be implemented immediately to help you maintain responsible gaming habits.
Recognising Problem Gambling
Gambling should always remain an enjoyable form of entertainment. You may be developing a gambling problem if you:
- Gamble to make money rather than for entertainment
- Chase losses by increasing bets or playing longer
- Borrow money or use credit to fund your gambling
- Spend more time or money gambling than you can afford
- Neglect work, family, or social responsibilities due to gambling
- Lie about your gambling activities to friends or family
- Use money intended for essential expenses like rent, bills, or groceries
- Feel anxious, depressed, or guilty about your gambling
- Find it difficult to stop or reduce your gambling despite wanting to
If you recognise any of these warning signs, we strongly encourage you to seek help immediately and consider using our self-exclusion tools.
Guidelines for Safe Gambling
Follow these essential tips to maintain healthy gambling habits:
- Set a budget before you start and never exceed it

- Avoid gambling when you're stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol
- Balance gambling with other hobbies and social activities
- Never chase losses by increasing your bets
- Keep track of your spending and time spent gambling
