Entertainment should be fun and in control. paddy power provides a range of tools and guidance to keep your gaming experience positive, safe, and within the limits you set for yourself.
For paddy power, responsible gaming is not just a policy checkbox — it is part of our culture. We believe every player deserves a fun experience that does not negatively impact their daily life, finances, or relationships.
The reality of the online gambling industry is that a small number of users may experience issues related to their gaming habits. paddy power takes this very seriously. That is why we invest heavily in building comprehensive self-control tools, educating users about warning signs, and ensuring support is easily accessible to anyone who needs it.
Gambling should be a form of entertainment done with money you can afford to lose — not a way to generate income, escape problems, or try to recover losses. When that line starts to blur, it is time to pause and seek help.
Always Remember: Winning and losing are part of the game. Never bet more than you can afford, and never chase your losses — that is the most dangerous trap in gambling.
Paddy power actively encourages all members to set their own gaming limits before starting a session. This proactive approach is far more effective than trying to stop once you are already fully engaged in an active gaming session.
All these tools are free, easily accessible from your account settings, and enforced immediately without complicated procedures.
Set your own daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits directly from your account settings. These limits take effect immediately and require a cooling-off period before they can be increased again.
The self-exclusion option lets you block yourself from the platform for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or permanently. Enforced immediately with no delay.
Set your daily session time limit. The system will alert you when the time limit is approaching and automatically close the session once the limit is reached.
Set the maximum loss amount you are willing to absorb within a given period. The platform will stop allowing new wagers once this limit is reached.
Access a full, detailed record of all your games, bets, and financial transactions. Full transparency helps you monitor your own playing patterns.
Option to disable all promotional notifications, bonuses, and marketing offers if you find them disruptive or feel they encourage you to play more than intended.
Gambling problems usually develop gradually — they rarely happen overnight. Recognising the warning signs early is key to getting help before things get worse. Here are some signs to watch out for:
If you identify with any of the signs above, that is not a sign of weakness — it is a sign of strength to acknowledge it. paddy power is here to help you take the next step.
Answer these questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to three or more, consider reaching out to our support team.
If you answered "yes" to any of the questions above, contact paddy power customer support — we do not judge and we are here to help.
Decide how much you are willing to spend BEFORE opening the platform. Treat that money as an entertainment cost — just like buying a movie ticket.
Set a session time limit and stick to it. Enable the time limit feature in your account and take a break of at least 15 minutes every hour.
Treat gambling as entertainment. Wins are a fun bonus, not the main goal. If it stops being enjoyable, step away and take a break.
This is one of the most important principles. When you start chasing losses, the risk of losing even more increases sharply. Accept the loss and log out.
Your emotional and physical state affects the decisions you make while playing. Avoid gambling when stressed, sad, angry, or after consuming alcohol.
If you or someone you know needs help with a gambling problem, paddy power is here to help you take the first step. This is not about judgment — it is about your well-being.
Paddy power is here to give you the best entertainment experience — but always within the limits you set yourself. Register today and activate your self-control tools from day one for a safe, controlled, and enjoyable gaming experience.
