While the competitions offered by Prizeone operate independently of the UK Gambling Commission’s regulations, our commitment to fostering a culture of responsible play remains unwavering. The well-being of our players is paramount, which drives our constant efforts to ensure that their participation aligns with healthy financial practices and responsible play.
Our intention is to offer players an avenue for sporadic enjoyment through our platform. This presents the chance to win exceptional prizes, but we acknowledge that participation in paid competitions can occasionally lead to patterns of addictive behaviour. As a response, we are providing a range of essential resources and guidance specifically tailored for our players.
We approach the development of our competitions with a conscious responsibility and aim to prevent any undue emphasis on vulnerable demographics or underage individuals. While we recognise that most players engage in responsible play within their budgets, we are consistently prepared to provide assistance to all customers as part of our effort to address any instances of problematic or excessive play.
Key indicators of a potential problem
– Treating paid competitions as a source of income rather than entertainment
– Engaging in paid competitions to recover losses or escape financial challenges
– Allocating excessive financial resources and time beyond personal financial capacities
– Selling personal belongings or borrowing money to sustain participation in competitions
– Struggling to manage or discontinue participation in competitions
Things we can do
– If you suspect that your engagement is veering towards problematic behaviour or for any other reason, the option to self-exclude from the Prizeone website is available. Reach out to us via email at [email protected] and we will honour your request to temporarily or permanently close your account.
– To mitigate excessive spending, we have established limits on the number of tickets a player can purchase for each competition.
– In cases where our assessment identifies excessive or financially imprudent participation, we retain the discretion to close accounts, accompanied by an explanation.
Things you can do
– Maintaining a record of expenses related to participation in draws or skill-based competitions is a prudent practice.
– Numerous UK-based treatment centres provide comprehensive treatment programs and counselling support for individuals struggling with uncontrollable behaviour. You can search for your nearest centre on Google.
