Reality check

A pop-up message that appears after a self-set play interval — summarising elapsed time, total stakes and net position.

In detail

UKGC rules require operators to offer a reality-check feature, with intervals typically chosen from 15 minutes to 1 hour. The pop-up must show elapsed session time, total wagered, total won and net position. The player can choose to continue or close the session.
