Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

At McDraw, we believe that betting and casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling should never be viewed as a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. Always bet with money you can afford to lose, and set strict limits on how much you spend.

Please gamble responsibly and within your means.

Age Verification

All users must be at least 18 years old or the legal age for gambling in your jurisdiction to access PayPal betting sites and casino services in the United Kingdom.

If you are under the legal age, you must not register or place bets. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone else, help is available:

• Spending more time or money gambling than intended
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount spent
• Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
• Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
• Gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
• Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
• Risking important relationships, job, or educational opportunities
• Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement

If you recognise these signs, please reach out for support immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features

Most reputable betting operators offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Restrict the maximum amount you are willing to lose over a set timeframe
• Bet Limits: Cap the size of individual bets you can place
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders about how long you have been playing and how much you have spent
• Session Time Limits: Set automatic breaks or time-outs during gambling sessions
• Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from your account for a period of time (days, weeks, months, or years)
• Account Closure: Permanently close your account if necessary

We encourage you to use these tools proactively. Speak to your betting operator's customer support team if you need help activating any of these features.
