Responsible Gaming
At Stedith's Coates, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Spreadex betting and all forms of gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older to use Spreadex betting services in the United Kingdom. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity. If you are under 18, please do not gamble.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following behaviours in yourself or someone else, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses by betting more to recover money lost
- Hiding or lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or essentials
- Neglecting family, work, or social commitments due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Needing to bet larger amounts to feel the same level of excitement
- Failed attempts to cut down or stop gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
Self-Help Tools
Most responsible operators, including Spreadex, offer tools to help you stay in control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit in a given time period
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose
- Reality Checks: Receive reminders about how long you have been gambling
- Time-Out: Temporarily suspend your account for a cooling-off period
- Self-Exclusion: Permanently or temporarily close your account
Please contact Spreadex directly or visit their responsible gaming page to access these tools.
