Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Cabhoo, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Betting on Betway and other gaming activities carry real risks and should only be enjoyed responsibly by adults who can afford to lose what they stake.
We are committed to promoting a safe and enjoyable gaming environment for all our players in the United Kingdom.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older to gamble in the UK. This is a legal requirement. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to access betting services.
Betway and affiliated operators conduct age verification checks to ensure compliance with UK gambling regulations.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in your own behaviour or that of someone you know, it may indicate a gambling problem:
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount you gamble
- Borrowing money to fund gambling
- Neglecting family, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Failed attempts to cut down or stop gambling
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
- Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
If you experience any of these signs, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools Available
Betway provides several tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose over a given period
- Bet Limits: Restrict the maximum stake you can place on individual bets
- Reality Checks: Receive regular pop-up reminders showing how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently close your account if you feel you are losing control
