Aristocrat Backs BetBlocker in Responsible Gambling Initiative

Aristocrat supports the responsible gaming initiative by partnering with BetBlocker, a free app that blocks access to thousands of gambling websites. With financial support, BetBlocker will be able to continue helping thousands of people reduce the harms associated with online gambling.

BetBlocker’s Role in Promoting Safer Gambling

BetBlocker, a UK-registered charity, provides a free-to-use app that restricts access to thousands of gambling websites across various platforms. Its primary goal is to help individuals manage their gambling habits by limiting exposure to online gambling sites.

The app offers robust coverage, blocking over 84,500 sites on desktop and 1,500 sites and apps on mobile devices. Available on multiple platforms including Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS, BetBlocker is a crucial tool in promoting responsible gambling.

Aristocrat, a gaming company, has recently announced its support for BetBlocker. The company’s involvement will come in the form of donations, ensuring that BetBlocker continues to operate and assist individuals who struggle with gambling-related issues.

Aristocrat is one of the latest companies to back BetBlocker, following the example of other industry players such as Stake, which has also partnered with the charity.

BetBlocker Now Active on 15,000 Devices with Added Parental Controls

BetBlocker has gained traction in the gambling community, currently being used on nearly 15,000 devices. In addition to blocking gambling sites, the app is equipped with parental control features to further limit access to adult content, providing an extra layer of protection for users.

Duncan Garvie, Founder and Trustee of BetBlocker, highlighted the critical role of donations from socially responsible companies, stating, “The BetBlocker team and I are very grateful to Aristocrat for the support they’ve offered.” This financial backing allows BetBlocker to continue supporting thousands of people daily, helping them manage their gambling responsibly and reduce gambling-related harm.

With support from companies like Aristocrat, BetBlocker is well-positioned to expand its reach and continue its mission of reducing gambling harm.
