Responsible Gambling and Support

We are an independent directory of football analytics, prediction sites, research tools, and tipster services. We do not accept bets or operate gambling accounts.

Information Is Not a Guarantee

Statistics, model forecasts, historical tests, and tipster records do not guarantee future results. Inclusion in PitchMantis is not a certification of a provider’s accuracy or profitability.

You do not need to place a bet to use our educational guides or learn about football data.

Recognise When to Step Back

Gambling can cause financial and emotional harm. Warning signs can include chasing losses, borrowing money to gamble, hiding your gambling, or spending more time or money than intended.

If you choose to gamble:

• Do not use money needed for bills, housing, food, or other essentials.

• Set spending and time limits before starting.

• Do not increase stakes to recover losses.

• Avoid gambling when distressed or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

• Take a break if gambling stops feeling manageable.

Limits can reduce exposure, but they do not make gambling risk-free.

GAMSTOP is a free self-exclusion service covering gambling websites and apps operated by businesses licensed in Great Britain. It does not block every gambling website worldwide.

You can also pause or cancel research-tool and tipster subscriptions if they encourage you to keep gambling. Cancelling those subscriptions does not close your bookmaker accounts or self-exclude you from gambling.

If gambling is causing concern, use one of the support resources above. Taking a break—or choosing not to gamble—is always a valid decision.
