Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At Hexham Total Beauty, we believe that gambling should only ever be enjoyed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to make money or solve financial problems. Casino games are designed with a house edge, meaning that over time, the odds favour the casino. Please only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
In the United Kingdom, you must be at least 18 years of age to gamble legally. We take age verification seriously and verify all players before they can access King Casino through our site. If you are under 18, you are not permitted to gamble.
Parents and Guardians: If you are concerned about a young person's gambling activity, please contact the support organisations listed below.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be honest with yourself and check if any of the following apply to you:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than you intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to win back money you've lost
- Lying to family, friends, or others about how much you gamble
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, anxiety, or depression
- Neglecting work, studies, family, or social activities because of gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble, or gambling with money meant for bills and essentials
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you try to cut down or stop gambling
- Thinking about gambling constantly, even when you're not playing
- Needing to gamble with larger amounts to get the same level of excitement
- Failed attempts to control or stop your gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools and Player Protection
King Casino offers several tools to help you stay in control of your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit in a day, week, or month. Once the limit is reached, you cannot deposit further until the period resets.
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a specific time period.
- Reality Checks: Receive regular notifications during your gaming session to remind you how long you've been playing and how much you've spent.
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account. During self-exclusion, you will not be able to access your account or place bets.
- Time-Out: Take a break from gambling for a set period (typically 24 hours to several weeks) without fully closing your account.
These tools are available in your account settings. Please use them to manage your gambling responsibly.
