Responsible Play Tools at Howzit

Why These Tools Matter

Slots, live tables and quick crypto deposits are meant to be fun, not a source of stress. Howzit gives every account holder a set of controls that sit inside the platform, so you can shape your own limits rather than relying on willpower alone. None of these tools cost anything to switch on and none of them affect your ability to withdraw funds you have already won.

Deposit, Loss and Session Limits

From your account settings you can set a cap on how much you deposit in a day, a week or a month. You can also set a loss limit, which stops further real-money play once you hit a threshold you chose, and a session-length reminder that pops up after a set number of minutes so you notice how long you have been playing.

• Deposit limits: daily, weekly or monthly caps on card and crypto deposits
• Loss limits: a hard stop on further wagers once your chosen loss level is reached
• Session reminders: on-screen alerts after 30, 60 or 90 minutes of continuous play
• Reality checks: a running summary of time and spend shown during a session
• Wagering pauses: a short cooling-off period before you can raise a limit you previously lowered

Lowering a limit takes effect immediately. Raising one is deliberately slower, typically with a short waiting period, so a spur-of-the-moment decision does not undo a limit you set with a clear head.

Time-Outs and Self-Exclusion

If you want a break rather than a permanent limit, you can request a time-out from your account for 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. During a time-out you cannot log in, deposit or place bets, and promotional emails stop landing in your inbox. For a longer break, self-exclusion can be set for 6 months, 1 year or longer through our support team. Self-exclusion closes your account to new deposits and gameplay for the period chosen, and reinstatement is not automatic once that period ends.

GamStop: Where Howzit Stands

We would rather state this plainly than let a player assume protections apply that do not. If GamStop exclusion is part of your plan to control your play, treat that as a reason to also use Howzit's own deposit limits, time-outs or self-exclusion tools directly, and to speak with an independent support service.

Getting Support Beyond Howzit

Our in-account tools are a starting point, not a substitute for independent help. GamCare offers free, confidential support for anyone affected by gambling, including a helpline you can call on 0808 8020 133 or visit at https://www.gamcare.org.uk/. BeGambleAware provides information, self-assessment tools and links to treatment providers across the UK at https://www.begambleaware.org/. Both organisations are independent of Howzit and do not share your account details with us.

Age Verification: 18+ Only

Howzit is restricted to players aged 18 and over. We verify age and identity during account setup and before withdrawals, using standard document checks. If we have reasonable grounds to believe an account belongs to someone under 18, that account is closed and any deposits are returned, with no play permitted in the meantime. Parents and guardians who want to block gambling sites from a shared device can also use independent filtering software as an extra layer of protection.
