Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Bachata Movement, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices. Please remember that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never chase losses by betting more than you planned.
Age Verification
Gambling is only for individuals aged 18 years or older in the UK. It is your responsibility to ensure you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction before placing any bets. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, problem gambling may be developing:
- Gambling more frequently or with larger amounts than intended
- Thinking about gambling constantly or reliving past gambling experiences
- Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount of time and money spent
- Neglecting family, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Borrowing money or getting into debt to fund gambling
- Unable to cut back or stop gambling despite wanting to
- Experiencing anxiety, depression, or irritability when not gambling
- Failed attempts to reduce or control gambling
If any of these apply to you, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Safer Gambling Features
Many gambling operators offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount of losses you are willing to accept
- Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders about how long you have been gambling and how much you have spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing gambling accounts
- Take a Break: Request a cooling-off period to step away from gambling
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you decide to stop gambling
We encourage you to use these tools to maintain control over your gambling activity.
