Responsible Gambling 🛡️
Responsible gambling means staying in control of time, money and emotions while you play. On Trendbet, as anywhere, you must be 18+ to gamble, and you should only stake money you can afford to lose.
An important point for UK readers: Trendbet, run by DLD GLOBAL N.V., operates under a Curaçao licence and holds no UK licence valid for this market. That means it is not part of GAMSTOP, the UK-wide self-exclusion scheme, and UK Gambling Commission protections do not apply to it. Please weigh that before you play.
Warning signs of problem gambling
Problems often build slowly. Watch for these signs in yourself or someone close to you:
- Spending more money or time than you planned
- Chasing losses by betting again to win money back
- Borrowing money, selling items or hiding gambling from family
- Feeling irritable, anxious or guilty when you are not playing or after losing
- Neglecting work, relationships or bills because of gambling
- Gambling to escape stress, low mood or loneliness
If two or more of these sound familiar, take a break and talk to someone.
Self-exclusion tools
Because Trendbet is not licensed for the UK, GAMSTOP will not block your account there. We do not know of a published self-exclusion scheme from the operator, so you can ask its live chat what options exist, but do not rely on that alone.
Practical steps you can take yourself include closing your account in writing, deleting saved payment details, and using the free blocking software below on every device.
- GAMSTOP: free UK-wide self-exclusion covering UKGC-licensed sites only
- Gamban: blocks gambling sites and apps on your devices
- BetBlocker: free software that blocks gambling websites
- Your bank: many UK banks let you block gambling transactions on cards
Deposit limits and keeping control
Trendbet publishes no deposit-limit tool that we can confirm, and its accepted methods are Bank Wire Transfer and Jeton Wallet. Set your own limit before you deposit: decide a weekly amount, treat it as spent, and never top up after a loss.
Also note that the welcome bonus carries 55x wagering, which pushes you to play much more than you deposit. If that pressure feels hard to resist, skipping the bonus is a sensible choice. Set a timer, take regular breaks and never gamble when tired, upset or drinking.
