Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Custom Fit Golf Shop, we believe that online betting and gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Betting should never be viewed as a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. If you find yourself relying on gambling for income or using it to escape difficulties, please seek help immediately.
We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting our users in maintaining healthy betting habits.
Age Verification
Online betting is only available to individuals aged 18 years and over in the United Kingdom. It is illegal for anyone under this age to participate in gambling activities.
All operators we recommend, including bet365, verify the age and identity of their users. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to access betting services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please review the following checklist. If you recognise any of these signs in your own behaviour, seek support:
- Chasing Losses: Trying to recover money lost by gambling more
- Hiding Gambling Activity: Concealing the amount of time or money spent on betting
- Neglecting Responsibilities: Prioritising gambling over work, family, or personal obligations
- Borrowing to Gamble: Using loans, credit cards, or borrowed money to fund betting
- Loss of Control: Inability to stick to predetermined spending limits
- Mood Changes: Becoming irritable or anxious when unable to gamble
- Escalating Stakes: Needing to bet larger amounts to achieve the same level of excitement
- Relationship Impact: Gambling causing conflict with family, friends, or partners
- Continued Gambling Despite Harm: Continuing to gamble despite negative financial or emotional consequences
Self-Help Tools & Features
Most reputable betting operators provide tools to help you manage your gaming responsibly:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Restrict the amount you are willing to lose during a set period
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your betting account
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic logout times to manage playing duration
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop betting entirely
We recommend using these tools proactively as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
