The Paddy Power Way

Gambling should be safe and enjoyable for you and all our punters. We’re already spreading the word about Safer Gambling so that everyone gets the message but putting you in control is also vital. That’s why we’ve come up with a bunch of tools from deposit and loss limits to full self-exclusion. These tools have been designed to be simple and easy to use and we’re constantly chipping away and fine tuning them to make them work even better.

We’re pumping time and effort into new technology and creating a learning culture to make safe play the Paddy Power way. We want to protect you and all our punters, and make sure you always have fun when you play.
