Responsible Gaming

At Langoustine in the Box, we are committed to promoting a safe and enjoyable gaming environment for all our users. Responsible gaming is at the heart of everything we do, and we encourage all players to gamble within their means and to seek help if they feel their gaming habits are becoming problematic.

What is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming refers to a set of practices and tools designed to help players maintain control over their gambling activity. It encompasses understanding the risks associated with gambling, setting personal limits, and recognising when gaming may be having a negative impact on your life. Responsible gaming is not about preventing people from enjoying casino games; rather, it is about ensuring that entertainment remains enjoyable and does not lead to financial or emotional harm.

All operators featured on Langoustine in the Box are required to promote responsible gaming practices and provide tools to help players stay in control.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

It is important to recognise the early warning signs of problem gambling. If you notice any of the following behaviours in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek support:

If you recognise any of these signs, please reach out for help immediately.

Self-Exclusion Tools

Self-exclusion is a powerful tool that allows you to voluntarily ban yourself from accessing casino sites for a set period. When you self-exclude, you will be prevented from logging in and will be unable to place any bets. All licensed UK casinos offer self-exclusion options, typically ranging from 24 hours to permanent exclusion.

To self-exclude from a casino featured on our website, visit the Responsible Gaming section of your account, usually found in the settings menu. You can also use GAMSTOP, the national self-exclusion scheme, which allows you to exclude yourself from all UK-licensed gambling operators simultaneously for a period of six months up to five years.

Deposit Limits

Setting deposit limits is an effective way to manage your gambling budget. Most licensed casinos allow you to set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits, ensuring that you never spend more than you can afford. These limits can be adjusted in your account settings, and they provide an additional layer of protection to help you stay in control of your finances.

Age Verification: 18+ Only

All gambling on Langoustine in the Box is strictly for individuals aged 18 years and over. We are committed to preventing underage gambling. All operators we review conduct rigorous age verification checks during account registration. If you are under 18, you are not permitted to gamble, and we encourage parents and guardians to use parental controls to restrict access to gambling websites.
