Monitor how often you are gambling

A useful way of keeping your gambling activity in control is to monitor how often you are gambling.

If you gamble online, the websites you use must provide access to your account activity, which means you will be able to see:

• when you have gambled
• how much money you have spent during a gambling session
• how often you log in
• how much time you are spending on the site.

Having this information will allow you to control your gambling and make decisions based on your recent activity. You will be able to make informed decisions and set yourself limits.

If your gambling activity is increasing, think about why you are gambling.
