Safe Play Hub

Welcome to the Safe Play Hub here at Fruity King. This is a comprehensive resource about Responsible Gambling, and you will be able to find everything that you need on the subject.

We are a fully licensed online casino and sportsbook, regulated by the UKGC (UK Gambling Commission). This means that we are required to follow strict legislation that is put in place, primarily, for your safety. 

As a result, we take responsible gambling very seriously and have covered this extensively.

There are many different aspects related to responsible gambling and here at Fruity King, our aim is to break these down into digestible nuggets in a way that is both informative and engaging.

Our team has over four decades of expertise and experience in the iGaming industry and is passionate about making sure that you can enjoy gambling in a responsible manner. 

In addition to giving you information on different areas of responsible gambling, we also have tips, advice and links to resources.

What Is Responsible Gambling?

The words ‘responsible gambling’ refer to a set of practices that make sure gambling stays fun and safe for the player. 

Every licensed casino is required to have a responsible gambling policy in place to help players be responsible with their gambling activities.

Core Principles

One of the most important things to remember about gambling is that you should treat it as a form of entertainment and not as a means of generating income. 

As such, you should always wager within personal financial limits and make sure that you have an understanding of the odds and risks involved.

  • Treat gambling as entertainment.
  • Do not wager more than you can afford to lose.
  • Have an understanding of the game you are wagering on.

Main Objectives of Responsible Gambling

The principal aim of responsible gambling is to prevent gambling-related harm by educating players about the dangers of wagering. 

In addition, it is important that minors are protected plus adults who are most at risk and other vulnerable people. Ultimately, operators need to ensure there is consistent fairness and transparency in everything that they do.

  • Prevention of gambling-related harm.
  • Protection of vulnerable people
  • Ensure fairness and transparency

Why Responsible Gambling Is Important

It is important to gamble responsibly because this prevents you from getting into difficulties which can lead to further problems down the line. For some people, gambling responsibly is a challenge, however there are steps that you can follow that can help to keep you on track.

Staying In Control Of Your Gambling Activity

When you are gambling, it is important to make sure you are in control and know exactly how much you are wagering. If you treat gambling as a fun source of entertainment without having the intention of doing it to generate a profit, then this will help you to stay in control.

Risks Of Problem Gambling

There are a number of risks associated with problem gambling, not least of which involves losing everything. Sometimes, it can be hard to see the signs in yourself and even other people, though it is really important to safeguard yourself. 

Sometimes, people with addictive personalities can get hooked on gambling and, if this is you or someone you know, the best thing to do is to avoid this completely.
