⚠️ Gambling involves risk. Never bet more than you can afford to lose. If gambling is affecting your life, seek help immediately.
Getting Help
📞 GamCare: 0808 8020 133 (UK) · BeGambleAware: begambleaware.org · NCPG Africa: ncpgafrica.org
These organisations offer free, confidential support to anyone worried about their own or someone else's gambling. You do not need to have a diagnosed problem to reach out — early support prevents bigger problems later.
Signs of Problem Gambling
- Betting with money needed for essentials — rent, food, bills
- Chasing losses by placing bigger bets
- Hiding gambling activity from family or friends
- Feeling anxious, irritable or depressed when not gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble
Self-Help Tools
Most licensed African bookmakers offer deposit limits, session time limits, self-exclusion and cooling-off periods. Contact your bookmaker's responsible gambling team to activate these tools — most process the request within 24 hours.
You can self-exclude from multiple bookmakers at once via your country's gambling regulator — the NLRC in Nigeria, BCLB in Kenya, GCA in Ghana, or the WCGRB in South Africa.
Safe Gambling Tips
- Set a strict weekly budget before you start
