Affordability Checks: What to Expect

UKGC-licensed operators must assess whether players can afford their gambling. This may involve checks at sign-up or when spending reaches certain thresholds.

You may be asked for proof of income or bank statements. Operators use this to set appropriate deposit limits. Refusing checks can result in limits being applied or account restrictions.

These checks are a regulatory requirement to reduce harm. Your data is handled in line with privacy laws.
