Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At Bunker7, we believe gambling should only ever be a form of entertainment. It is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Gambling always carries the risk of losing what you stake. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never view it as an investment or income source.
Please take responsibility for your gaming habits and set strict limits before you play.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older to gamble in the United Kingdom. This is a legal requirement. If you are under 18, you are not permitted to access gambling services on this site or any other licensed operator.
We take underage gambling protection seriously and will verify your age during account registration.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Below are common warning signs to watch for. If you recognise any of these in your behaviour, please seek help immediately:
- Chasing losses — trying to recoup lost money by gambling more
- Gambling with money intended for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about how much you gamble
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or negative emotions
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
- Neglecting relationships, work, or hobbies due to gambling
- Increasing the frequency or amount wagered to feel the same excitement
- Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
- Unsuccessful attempts to cut down or stop gambling
- Experiencing financial problems as a direct result of gambling
If you experience any of these warning signs, take action now and contact a support organisation.
Self-Help Tools & Player Protection
We provide several tools to help you maintain control over your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a session or time period
- Betting Limits: Restrict the maximum stake you can place on individual bets
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic notifications during play to remind you of time elapsed and money spent
- Time-Out: Temporarily suspend your account for a period you choose (typically 24 hours to several weeks)
- Self-Exclusion: Permanently or temporarily close your account if you feel you cannot control your gambling
These tools are available in your account settings. We encourage you to use them proactively.
