Bank gambling blocks in Ireland

Many Irish banks offer features that help customers limit gambling transactions. Contact your bank directly to ask what is available — features change over time.

  • Ask whether your card can block gambling merchant categories.
  • Ask about cool-down delays before re-enabling.
  • Check whether app-based spending limits are available.
  • If asked, your bank should treat this conversation in confidence.

GamblingHelp.ie does not maintain a current list of bank features. Please confirm directly with your bank.
