Online gambling
Online gambling is entertainment that sometimes leads to financial reward. It is in no event a source of income to provide for the player's everyday needs or that of his family or a means of paying one's debts. Therefore it is the player's responsibility to play with moderation, to be aware of his needs and to know when to stop, whether losing or winning.
How to act responsibly
  • Set a maximum loss limit, for a specific time, and force yourself to stick to it;
  • Never play to win at all costs, but consider gambling as a pleasure, the pleasure of trying;
  • Never borrow money from your family or financial institutions to gamble;
  • Take regular breaks;
  • Alternate gambling with other activities;
  • Never play during periods of trouble, stress, depression or confusion;
  • Play only with money available for pleasure. Never play with money intended for important expenses (food, rent, electricity, heating, etc.);
  • Never consider gambling as an escape from your everyday problems.
Responsible Gaming Tools
Ladbrokes.be has set up options to allow you to manage your account in a manner suited to your needs and means.
How to be a responsible player
  • Set your own limits. The « My Account » section is there for you to set amounts not to be exceeded. If you place bets above that limit, the site will automatically prevent your bet.
  • Ask for a temporary closure. By selecting the "temporary closure" option in your Player Account (the "Responsible Gaming" tab), the Operator will prevent access to your Account for the period of time determined by you.
  • Ask for a self-exclusion. By choosing the option "self-exclusion" in your Player Account (tab " Responsible Gaming"), the Operator will prevent access to your Account for the period determined by you. A Player Account that has been self-excluded may not, under any circumstances, be reactivated before the end of the self-exclusion period. During the self-exclusion period, the User may not attempt to reopen his account or create a new account by any means, including via the identity of third parties.

Child protection
Belgian law prohibits anyone under 18 to bet online and anyone under the age of 21 to take part in virtual betting. Ladbrokes.be strictly complies with that requirement aimed at protecting children and adolescents. Ladbrokes.be goes beyond that duty by taking a formal undertaking never to target youngsters in its advertising campaigns.
Ladbrokes.be only accepts clients over 18 for sports betting and over 21 for virtual betting.
In order to reduce the risk of minor clients, Ladbrokes.be checks the identity of its clients when child activity is suspected. Although we dedicate a lot of time and effort to prevent children from gambling on our site, we draw the parents/guardians' attention to becoming aware that a child, even with their consent, is not allowed to gamble on our Ladbrokes.be site.
As a parent, how do you prevent children from gambling
  • Set up access blocking filters for online gambling sites;
  • Do not leave the gambling page open if you leave the computer;
  • Keep your passwords and user names secret;
  • Explain the law regarding gambling and the dangers caused by gambling additions;
  • Keep your credit cards and other electronic payment means out of reach of your children.
