Responsible Gaming at Mono Play
Welcome to Mono Play, where your safety and well-being are our top priorities. We understand that gambling is a form of entertainment that should always be enjoyed responsibly. Our commitment is to provide a secure and supportive environment that helps you maintain control over your gaming activities while complying fully with the United Kingdom’s gambling legislation and guidelines.
Our Commitment to Safe Gambling
Mono Play operates under a licence issued by the UK Gambling Commission, ensuring that we adhere to the highest standards of fairness, transparency, and player protection. We believe that gambling should be fun and never a source of distress or harm. To this end, we provide a range of tools and resources designed to help you gamble within your limits and seek support if you need it.
Tools to Help You Stay in Control
We offer a suite of responsible gaming features that empower you to set boundaries and manage your gameplay effectively:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly maximum deposit amounts to control how much money you add to your account.
- Wager and Loss Limits: Define limits on the amount you can bet or lose within a specified period to keep your spending in check.
- Session Time Limits: Choose how long you want to play in a single session. Receive reminders to help you take breaks and avoid prolonged gambling.
- Reality Checks: Periodic notifications that inform you of the time and money spent during your gaming session to promote awareness.
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily block your access to your account for a minimum of 24 hours up to six months or longer if needed, allowing you to take a break from gambling.
- Permanent Account Closure: If you decide to stop gambling altogether, you can request permanent closure of your account at any time.
Recognising the Signs of Problem Gambling
It is important to be aware of behaviours that may indicate gambling is becoming a problem. You might consider seeking help if you:
- Gamble to recover previous losses or “chase” losses.
- Use money intended for essentials such as rent, bills, or food to gamble.
- Spend more time or money on gambling than you originally planned.
- Borrow money or sell possessions to fund gambling.
- Neglect work, family, or social commitments because of gambling.
- Feel anxious, restless, or irritable when trying to stop gambling.
- Lie to others about your gambling habits.
- Constantly think about gambling or planning your next bet.
If you recognise any of these signs, we encourage you to take immediate action and seek professional support.

Protecting Minors and Vulnerable Persons

We recommend that parents and guardians use parental control software such as Net Nanny or Qustodio to block access to gambling sites for minors. Additionally, please keep your login and banking details secure and never share them.
