What it does
Depending on the jurisdiction and operator, self-exclusion can block account access, prevent new accounts, restrict marketing or apply across multiple licensed operators.

Self Exclusion
Understand what self-exclusion is, how it differs from a temporary break and what to check before activating it.
Temporary break vs exclusion
A short cooling-off period is usually temporary. Self-exclusion is generally intended as a stronger protective measure and can have longer minimum durations.
What to do before activation
If there is an existing account balance, document the balance and check the operator's withdrawal procedure. Self-exclusion and withdrawal processing are separate issues.
Additional protection
Consider payment blocks, device/site blocking tools and trusted-person support if account-level exclusion alone is not enough.
Self-exclusion and support resources
Self-exclusion is intended to create a barrier to gambling, but the exact scheme and duration depend on where you live and which operators you use.
