Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Cosmobet, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Gambling is not a reliable way to earn money, and you should never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose. Only bet what you can comfortably spend, just as you would on any other form of entertainment.
Please gamble responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
Online gambling in the UK is strictly regulated and reserved for individuals aged 18 years and over. All players must be at least 18 years of age to create an account and participate in gaming activities on Cosmobet.
We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to gamble.

Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help:

- Financial difficulties: Using money needed for essentials (bills, rent, food) to gamble
- Borrowing money: Taking loans or using credit to fund gambling activity
- Mood swings: Becoming irritable, anxious, or depressed related to gambling
- Neglecting relationships: Gambling interfering with personal relationships
- Lies about gambling: Being dishonest with others about the extent of your gambling
