Responsible gambling at Blockspins
Start playingMost people who open this page are checking in on their own habits, or on someone else's. Blockspins is built around cryptocurrency play with no fixed deposit ceiling, which makes it worth being deliberate about your own limits rather than relying on the site to set them for you.
Gambling as entertainment, not income
Betting and casino play are meant to be a way of spending time, not a way of making money. Treating a losing session as a debt to recover, or a winning one as proof of a system, is where the entertainment framing starts to slip. Blockspins does not offer any product designed to generate reliable income, because none exists.
When it stops being fun
A few concrete signs are worth taking seriously: chasing losses with bigger stakes, hiding the amount you've spent from people close to you, borrowing to fund a deposit, or feeling irritable when you try to stop. Betting past what you can comfortably afford, or letting it interfere with sleep, work or paying bills, are the clearer warning signs rather than vague unease.
A short self-check
Answer honestly, not for how it reads:
- Have you bet more than you meant to in a single session more than once recently?
- Have you lied to anyone about how much you've deposited or lost?
- Do you feel you need to bet to feel normal, rather than for enjoyment?
- Have you tried to cut back and found it harder than expected?
- Has gambling affected your sleep, mood or relationships?
- Have you used money meant for bills or essentials to fund a deposit?
More than one "yes" is worth acting on now, before it becomes a bigger pattern.
Limits you can set with us
Blockspins offers a self-exclusion policy covering three lengths: a definite period, an indefinite period, or a permanent closure. Requests go through our support team by email rather than a self-service toggle, so write in clearly stating the length you want.
A permanent closure is final in a practical sense too: any remaining account balance, and any future cashback, rakeback or bonus payments, are forfeited once the account is closed. That is worth weighing before choosing permanent over a fixed break if you are undecided.
What we cannot offer
We do not publish separate deposit-limit or time-limit tools beyond self-exclusion. If you need firmer daily controls than an all-or-nothing account closure, the blocking software below works at device level and does not depend on us switching anything on.
Where to get help in the UK
Free, confidential support exists outside any single operator's tools. GamCare runs the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133, free and available 24/7. BeGambleAware offers advice and support tools independent of any casino brand, and GamStop provides free national self-exclusion across all UK-licensed gambling sites in one registration.
For a more structured route, Gordon Moody offers residential and online treatment programmes for people whose gambling has become difficult to manage alone.
Blocking software
Gamban (gamban.com) and BetBlocker (betblocker.org, free, multi-platform) block gambling sites and apps at device level, which is useful if account-level self-exclusion feels too easy to reverse in a low moment.
Protecting minors
Blockspins requires all users to be 18 years or older, and this page and every page on this site are restricted to players aged 18+. If a device you own is shared with a minor, parental-control software such as Net Nanny or Qustodio can prevent access to gambling sites regardless of what any single operator does on their end.
