Thing You Need to Know Before Playing Mobile Casino
The continuous popularity of the Internet has made most things available online, including gambling. Apart from going to a land-based casino, you can now play your favorite games on the web using your mobile device or computer. If you are interested in trying it, here are some of the things that you should know before you dive in and start playing.
Check with your local government
Every region or country has its laws when it comes to gambling, and this includes mobile casino gaming. Check with your local government to see if it’s allowed or not. It’s to ensure that you are not playing illegally in your area. It will avoid an altercation with the law.
Choose a licensed site
Check the site and look for information saying it’s licensed. Deal with one that is licensed to ensure that it is governed and is a legitimate operation. Some of the most popular licensing authorities around the UK are the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority.
See the game list
There are several mobile casino sites and apps available, and they offer a different list of games. Check out what options they offer to ensure that there is variety and that your favorite casino game is there. No matter how good the site is, if it doesn’t have the game that you are looking for, it wouldn’t be worthwhile using it.
Determine the minimum and maximum deposit
Casino players have varying game requirements. Some prefer to wager higher amounts, while others look for games that allow them to play with minimum money. Mobile casinos have their minimum and maximum deposit requirements. Always look for this information to ensure that you will play within your budget. For example, if you want to play without spending much, there are minimum deposit casinos that allow as low as €1 deposit. It is also ideal for those who want to test the games first before playing with a higher amount.
Check welcome bonuses
It’s one of the things that mobile casino sites use to attract customers. Some websites will match your first-time deposit and will also give you free spins. For example, if you deposit €50 for the first time, then the site will match it and will deposit an additional €50 to your account. As mentioned, you may also get free spins like 50 or 200 spins. See which site offers the better deal. Aside from the welcome bonus, look out for their other promos and rewards too, like VIP rewards and the bonuses they give on your succeeding deposits.
Find out the availability of customer support
Choose a site that offers 24/7 customer support. You will get help anytime you need it, especially as these sites operate continuously.
Ease of deposit and withdrawal
Some sites make it easy to deposit money, but the withdrawal is a hassle. Always check their process to ensure that both the deposit and withdrawal will be easy and convenient for you.
Like land-based casino games, mobile casino games can also be addictive. Be sure to have discipline and control to avoid spending more than you should.

GamCare releases Annual Report following record breaking year of support on the National Gambling Helpline
GamCare’s National Gambling Helpline received a record 55,228 calls and online chats from people experiencing gambling harm in 2023-24 – a 25% increase from the previous year – according to the charity’s Annual Report.
In a year marked by uncertainty over the future shape and structure of the gambling harms treatment sector following the previous government’s white paper on gambling reform, the charity continued to prioritise those at-risk of, or currently experiencing, gambling harm.
Of all calls and online chats that were responded to on GamCare’s Helpline in 2023/24, 41,070 (74%) were classed as supportive interventions. This includes supporting people with initial guidance and advice as well as delivering a seamless entry point into structured treatment services, with individuals completing treatment reporting a significant reduction in gambling-related distress and financial harm.
In March 2024, the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities published an assessment of the gambling treatment system, highlighting that 57% of individuals engaging in treatment were referred by the National Gambling Helpline. This underscores the Helpline’s critical role in connecting people to the support they need. Over 9,100 free treatment sessions were delivered in the year to April 2024, with an average of just 2.1 days’ wait from point of referral.
GamCare’s targeted programmes aimed at young people, women, and the criminal justice system provided training on how to spot the signs of harms and where to signpost into support for 10,344 professionals, and education for 53,324 young people, children and parents. The Women’s Programme, in partnership with organisations such as Refuge, trained 3,813 professionals to recognise and address gambling-related harm among women.
Margot Daly, Executive Chair of GamCare’s Board, says: “Throughout a challenging year and with heightened demand for our services, GamCare’s staff have got on with the job of preventing harm where possible and treating harm where necessary. While we expect important changes in the gambling harms landscape, we have been determined not to let this uncertainty affect our relentless focus on the people who really matter – those at-risk of or currently experiencing gambling harms.
“I would like to thank and pay tribute to our frontline staff who provide 24/7 support for all those at risk or in distress. I also want to thank GamCare’s senior executive team who have steered GamCare through a period of sustained change, and to my fellow trustees for their guidance, unwavering support and the time each has dedicated to ensuring that the charity stays on course and on mission.
“As we look ahead to how the future of the gambling harms sector is shaped, we are committed to working proactively with the NHS and other partners and commissioners to ensure that people are continually able to receive the right support at the right time.”
