Help for a gambling problem — starting with the access layer.
Help for a gambling problem, starting with the one thing that works: removing access. GSE files verified self-exclusion requests to every online operator worldwide and gives you documented proof.
GSE documents authorized self-exclusion requests. Each operator decides acceptance under its own regulator — GSE does not guarantee exclusion or refunds.

Frequently asked questions
How do I get help for a gambling problem?+
Start by removing access — that's what GSE does. Then combine with therapy (CBT is proven effective), peer support like Gamblers Anonymous, and financial counseling.
Where can I get free gambling help right now?+
UK: GamCare 0808 8020 133. US: 1-800-GAMBLER. Global: gamblingtherapy.org. GSE handles the exclusion side; these services handle recovery.
Is a gambling problem an addiction?+
Yes — the DSM-5 classifies gambling disorder as a behavioral addiction, alongside substance disorders. Treatment options and success rates are similar.
Can family members help set this up?+
Family can support you through registration, but the electronic signature and signed authorization must be done by the person themselves — that is a legal requirement.
What if I've already lost a lot of money?+
GSE cannot recover past losses. It can stop future losses — which is the single most impactful thing you can do today. GSE's evidence report can also support debt or refund conversations.
