Support and self-exclusion

  • ConnexOntario — Ontario support and service navigation.
  • BetGuard — Ontario online gambling self-exclusion. Read the service’s current scope and registration terms.
  • Gambling Therapy — international online support.
  • GamCare — UK gambling support and information. Check which services are available from your location.
  • GambleAware — information and support navigation focused on Great Britain.
  • GAMSTOP — self-exclusion for participating online gambling services licensed in Great Britain. It is not an Ontario, New Zealand or Republic of Ireland national scheme.
