Protecting Under-18s

Lottoland UK is for adults aged 18 and over. Identity checks (KYC) are completed before a payout, and the brand's own terms set out what happens to an account opened by someone under age. If children or teenagers use your devices, the three habits below make the biggest difference.

Lock Your Devices

Use a strong screen-lock and don't store gambling passwords in shared browsers.

Use Filtering Software

Free tools such as BetBlocker block gambling sites on a child's phone, tablet or laptop.

Protect Your Cards

Never let a minor know your card or Apple Pay details, and check your statements for transactions you do not recognise.

Time-Out and Self-Exclusion

Time-Out (Short Break)

  • Choose 24 hours, 1 week or 1 month.
  • Your account stays open; you just pause playing.
  • Good after a bad session or when you are playing more than you meant to.
  • Ask the 24/7 chat if you need help finding it.

Self-Exclusion (6 months - 5 years)

  • You pick a period from 6 months up to 5 years.
  • Meant for when a break is not enough and you want the account closed to you.
  • Do not open a new account during the period; that defeats the point.
  • For UK-wide blocking across all sites, also use GAMSTOP.
