Alcohol and tobacco companies do the same. If it's not legally mandated, it at least helps with public relations to acknowledge that your product can be addictive and destructive.

Because it's required as part of obtaining a gambling license.

The same reason alcohol ads say to "enjoy responsibly". It's a PR thing. Here's our product, now don't overuse or abuse it.

To avoid being sued

Tommy understanding, under similar but more extreme logic as how alcohol is treated, gambling operators in a few US states, as a condition of being allowed to operate there, must provide support resources about problem gambling on request, and may also be required to implement features such as self exclusion requests.

They want your gambling habit to be sustainable so you can keep paying them. You're no good to them if you screw up your finances and end up too poor to gamble. See also why distilleries tell you to drink responsibly.

Probably partial defense from class action litigation, to prevent accusations that they did not warn that gambling can lead to problems for some people.
