A Trusted Partner in Gambling Harm Prevention

Gamban was built to block gambling apps and websites.In the past ten years, we’ve had over half a million users, our apps have been downloaded more than million times and Gamban’s blocking software has been used by people across the world, protecting our users from gambling harm. Regulators globally have recognised the importance of Gamban in bolstering self-exclusion, and we work with many of them to provide free access to our blocking software for users in their jurisdictions.<h3>Why Gamban?</h3>Gamban's software is robust, and we are constantly improving and evolving what we do. This includes regular updates, hundreds of new additions to the blocklist per day and an excellent support team who are on hand when our users need it. Gamban is also independent of the commercial gambling industry. The people Gamban was set up to help have been harmed by operators, which are not sufficiently protecting their customers. If anything, the sector is making it worse: 35% of people suffering “problem gambling” receive <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.gamblingwithlives.org/key-gambling-stats/">daily incentives to gamble</a>, compared to 4% of those not suffering gambling harm. Flimsy self-exclusion measures and no care for vulnerable people is why we believe our independence is important, enabling us to work in the best interests of our users and support their recovery.Our blocklist isn’t country-specific, nor does Gamban only block legal websites. Both regulated and black market gambling apps and websites won’t be accessible when you install Gamban. Once it's on your devices, it will work regardless of where you are, so you are always covered. We have servers enabled all over the world, ensuring no impact on the performance of their devices.Gamban also provides our partners with the necessary training and account management to take full advantage of distributing our blocking software, including access to real-time activation data through a portal.<h3>People First</h3>Gamban was built on lived experience. Jack founded Gamban in 2015 when struggling with online gambling. He noticed there wasn’t any dependable blocking software available for Mac and wanted to create one. Read more about Jack's story <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gamban.com/blog/jack-symons-story">here</a>. Lived experience is embedded across our team, which helps us understand and create a better product and service for our users. We also work closely with addiction experts to help understand more about gambling addiction and to address any emerging trends. Our independence allows us to engage openly about the industry’s role in exacerbating harm through the products and practices that are being adopted. Gamban’s values are based on putting people first, which is why we strive to make our employee experience the best it can be. In 2024, we were awarded Platinum by Investors in People, the highest level of recognition possible under the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.investorsinpeople.com/accreditations/we-invest-in-people/">We Invest In People Accreditation. </a>Gamban is also a B-Corp, the first gambling blocking software to receive that certification. This is due to our high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.<h3>Our Technology</h3>When it comes down to it, the most important thing we need to prove is how well Gamban blocks and how difficult the software is to remove by users wanting to create the necessary frictions to help them quit. Independent testing has revealed that Gamban has the most extensive blocking coverage of our peer group.Additionally, Gamban is ISO 27001 certified, one of the world's most recognised information security management standards. Gamban also received ISO 9001 certification, making our gambling-blocking software the first to achieve both.Privacy is something we take very seriously. The nature of Gamban means that we want to use as little customer data as possible. This is why we’ve also recently moved our analytics software from Google Analytics to Plausible. Find out more about this <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gamban.com/blog/gamban-make-the-move-from-google-analytics-to-plausible">here</a>. We collect only what is necessary to verify licence entitlement and device identity, provide customer support where needed, maintain product integrity and prevent circumvention.<h3>What Do Our Partners Say?</h3>Amanda Blackford, former Director of Operations &amp; Problem Gambling Services at the Ohio Casino Control Commission, said: "As regulators, we must acknowledge that our jurisdiction and authority can only go so far. The black market, along with social casinos, can be a serious problem for people, and before Gamban, we had no solution to offer our citizens that could aid in that struggle. Gamban has been a game-changer for us and a huge step forward in the support services we can offer Ohioans."<h3>How can you work with Gamban?</h3>If you’re a regulator and would like to have a chat with our team about how we can make Gamban more accessible to people in your jurisdiction, please don’t hesitate to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gamban.com/contact">get in touch</a>. We’d love to hear from you.

Helping spread awareness of its credit score-building tool.

Gamban has partnered with Loqbox to spread awareness of its credit score building tool.

Brazil Introduces Self-Exclusion

Brazil has just launched its own self-exclusion program. This means that anyone from Brazil can now ban themselves from licensed online gambling. <h2>What is self-exclusion?</h2>When you sign up for self-exclusion, your personal details are added to a register that prevents you accessing licensed gambling services in Brazil, for a set time that you choose.Once set up, licensed online casinos and betting websites must prevent you from creating new accounts and must restrict access to any existing accounts for the entire duration of your exclusion.Many countries offer self-exclusion, with thousands of people using it every day.<h2>How to sign up</h2>You can sign up to the Brazilian self-exclusion register using your Gov.br account. After logging in, you select the length of your exclusion and confirm that you accept the system terms. Your exclusion begins as soon as you complete this step.Register for self-exclusion (https://www.gov.br/fazenda/pt-br/composicao/orgaos/secretaria-de-premios-e-apostas/autoexclusao)<h2>How long can you self-exclude for?</h2>When you sign up, you can choose how long you want your self-exclusion to last.<ul><li>You can pick a set period, with a minimum of one month.</li><li>You can also choose to stay excluded for as long as you need, with no end date.</li></ul>You cannot end a fixed period early, and the open-ended exclusion will remain in place until you request its removal after the required minimum period.Note: To use certain Government services, including the national self exclusion system, you need a silver or gold Gov.br account. You can get this by verifying your identity through the steps provided on Gov.br.<h2>Why does this matter?</h2>This is a big step for Brazil, with the gambling market growing quickly, the country is making a move to protect its players and reduce gambling harm. Considering <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://revistapesquisa.fapesp.br/en/almost-11-million-brazilians-gamble-in-ways-that-put-their-health-and-finances-at-risk/">almost 11 million Brazilians gamble in ways that put their health and finances at risk</a>, this step feels like it’s come at the right time. <h2>Is self-exclusion enough?</h2>Self-exclusion stops access to gambling sites and apps authorised by the Prizes and Betting Secretariat. But while it curtails exposure to licensed operators, it does not block unregulated gambling.This is why we recommend a multi-layered approach. Signing up to the national self-exclusion program restricts access to licensed platforms, and installing blocking software such as <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gamban.com/apps">Gamban</a> extends that protection to all online gambling, including the black market.Gamban blocks gambling websites and apps globally, whether licensed or unlicensed, legal or illegal, and regardless of where they operate from. We update our blocklist daily and add around 700 new websites on average, helping cover platforms that the national system cannot include.Using self-exclusion alongside Gamban provides wider coverage for anyone who wants to stop gambling online.

Why this matters for people and for support services

Play 971 has entered the UAE market as the country’s first officially licensed and regulated online gaming platform.According to industry reports, the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA) added Play 971 to its public licence list on 28 November.Many of the games on the platform come from companies that already hold a licence. However, the live-casino section includes games from suppliers that do not yet appear on the public list of approved providers. What does that mean? In most regulated markets, casinos and the companies that make their games are licensed separately.It raises the question of whether every part of the site has actually been approved by the regulator.<h2>Why this matters</h2>This launch is significant in the UAE’s move towards a regulated gambling sector. Until now, the UAE Lottery has been the only legal option.For a country that has long maintained strict prohibitions, granting an online-gaming licence is a notable policy shift.Sources suggest regulations allow for one online licensee per emirate, so there could be up to seven operators in the market. That assumes, of course, that every emirate opts to back an online gaming offering in the first place.Even though the rules bar Emiratis from gambling, the country’s population is around 88% expat, giving operators a sizeable potential customer base. Given the history and context, an online gambling rollout carries both promise and risks. Promise for regulators and operators looking for new revenue streams, and risks for individuals and communities who may face harm from exposure to gambling. Especially in a region where support services and addiction-awareness infrastructure may not yet be well established.<h2>Why this matters for people and for support services</h2>For products like Gamban, aiming to support people at risk and suffering from gambling harm, this kind of shift is a sign that more people may soon have access to online gambling.Legal changes don’t necessarily mean safe changesJust because a government grants a licence does not guarantee protection for players. If the UAE is opening its doors to online gambling, that could expose new groups to real risks.As more operators enter newly regulated markets, it becomes even more important for people to have practical ways to stay in control or to quit altogether, such as blocking tools and self-exclusion options. The new platform has already been added to Gamban’s blocklist, keeping users protected from day one. Services focused on harm prevention will only become more crucial as markets like the UAE evolve.

The UAE Just Licensed Its First Online Casino

Play 971 has entered the UAE market as the country’s first officially licensed and regulated online gaming platform.

Making online gambling blocking accessible to millions in Japan

We’re excited to announce that Gamban is now available in <a href="gamban.jp">Japanese</a>, making it easier for Japanese speakers to access our blocking software and take steps toward a life free from gambling harm.<h3>More Than Just a Translation</h3>With the help of designers based in Tokyo, we’ve created a dedicated website built to feel familiar for people in Japan. By tailoring the experience this way, we have made it easier for more users to navigate the website, understand Gamban and take their first step towards recovery.While Gamban was created to block gambling sites, we also want to provide as many people as possible with the right information, in the right language, at the right time.This update is part of our continuous aspiration to make Gamban accessible to as many people as possible, wherever they are and whatever language they speak. By offering Gamban in Japanese, we aim to remove barriers for those who may otherwise struggle to find the right tools to help them quit online gambling.<blockquote>Matt Zarb-Cousin, co-founder of Gamban, said: “We are committed to not only translating but also localising Gamban so it looks and feels familiar to people, wherever they might be. Our mission is not only to make blocking software as good as it can be, but also as accessible as possible.”</blockquote>We’ve been fortunate to receive input and support from Japanese organisations such as The Society Concerned About Gambling Addiction, helping us ensure the translation is accurate, accessible, and culturally appropriate for users in Japan.<blockquote>We are a Japanese private organisation that supports people with gambling addiction and their families. Through this collaboration with Gamban, we expect to be able to further support the recovery of those with addiction by using a cutting-edge app that has never been available in Japan before.</blockquote>Noriko Tanaka, Representative, The Society Concerned About Gambling Addiction <h3>Why This Matters for Japan</h3>Behind the statistics are real people and families affected by gambling harm. Although most gambling is illegal in Japan, the rise of online casinos has made it easier than ever to gamble, often in secret and without clear warnings about the risks.<h4>The hidden scale </h4>A March 2025 National Police Agency survey estimated that 3.37 million Japanese have used overseas online casinos, with around 2 million active users wagering an average of ¥630,000 per person per year, totalling roughly ¥1.24 trillion (approximately US $8.4 billion) annually.<h4>Low awareness of illegality</h4>Around 40% of users believe online casinos are legal, and 75% first try free-play apps before moving to real-money gambling.<h4>Addiction and harm</h4>Almost 60% of users report addictive symptoms, and nearly half borrow money from family, friends or consumer finance to keep gambling.By making Gamban available in Japanese, we hope to offer more people a practical, stigma-free first step, helping people block gambling sites before the harm gets worse and giving them space to seek support and begin recovery.Gamban is already available in several other languages, including English, French, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazilian), Dutch, Norwegian, and Finnish. Adding Japanese expands that reach even further, helping us deliver on our commitment to supporting people worldwide.If you’re in Japan and want to learn more about how Gamban can help, visit <a href="gamban.jp">gamban.jp</a>

Understanding the Retail Trading Ecosystem

While most understand that gambling means the house always wins, it’s less known that 90% of retail traders fail to be profitable on a yearly basis. According to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.investopedia.com/articles/active-trading/030515/what-difference-between-institutional-traders-and-retail-traders.asp">Investopedia</a>, retail traders are “individuals who buy or sell securities with money from personal wealth, rather than for an institution”.The reality is the retail trading infrastructure is set up for people to fail. Self-described trading educators and charlatan “brokers” are in fact collecting large profits derived from retail trader losses.In this blog we’ll explore how this happens, who is profiting, and how similar these practices are to those of online gambling affiliates.<h3 class="thin">Who’s profiting?</h3>Charlatan “trading educators” have found it highly lucrative to sell online courses, teaching consumers terrible trading strategies, which if followed, will result in people trading their accounts to zero.Trading educators often have no knowledge of professional trading. Typically their experience is in digital marketing, which enables them to sell their courses. You will almost certainly spot lifestyle messaging in their promotional content. For example, “Follow these steps and you will own a car like mine”. In fact, most of these individuals don’t own these cars, they simply rent them to pretend on social media. Similarly, posts that show them “travelling” by private jet are always staged, utilising <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.scouty.com/location/vip-private-jet-for-filming-photography--influencer-shoots-601876a9fcba4300178dedc3">promotional shoot locations</a>. <h3 class="thin">If they’re bad at trading, how do the educators  end up making a profit?</h3>In every country where there is financial regulation, licensed brokers are required by their regulator to have an ‘Introducing Broker’ (‘IB’) agreement in place. This is an agreement between any individual or company that ‘introduces’ individuals to their trading platform.There are jurisdictions where anyone can become an Introducing Broker, without any special certification. Although some markets, such as Australia, South Africa and the United States require some certification for Introducing Brokers.These IB agreements typically include payments for the educator based on the size and frequency of an introduced client’s trading activity, such as spread and commission on trades.Outside of the United States, IB Agreements rebate “educators” between 20-50% of the spread + commission paid by an introduced individual to the trading platform, back to the “educator”.A minority of IB Agreements also rebate the “educator” a percentage of any finance charges paid by the client to the trading platform.This is clearly a huge conflict of interest. The “educators” are incentivized to encourage overtrading and increased position size, as this generates them the most profits in payments from the trading platform.There are clear similarities between this and online gambling affiliates who generally make a percentage of a referred individuals’ losses to any gambling site, sometimes more than 50% of the total losses from that account in perpetuity.The rise of “Day Trading” and “Technical Analysis Courses” can in part be attributed to this conflict of interest amongst market participants. The strategies taught by false “educators” typically applies very rudimentary knowledge. Technical analysis, for example, involves following lines on a chart. Teaching people with a lack of financial education something they believe they can understand can feel empowering to them. But this opens the door to much greater risks.One reason gamblers may continue to gamble in the face of sustained losses is due to the illusion of control. Gamblers may persist in the belief that they have special skills or knowledge that enable them to gain an advantage, which convinces them to keep going. When reflecting on a gambling session, a gambler may focus on a particular moment that doesn’t threaten but instead supports their notion that they’re able to find patterns in random events. Similar mechanisms are in play when it comes to trading and following lines on charts.“Technical Analysis” may form a small part of an overall system that a professional trader would employ, but it wouldn’t be enough to warrant making a trade on its own.Professional traders do not typically “Day Trade”, except in certain market conditions. “Day Trading” is normally carried out by algorithms trading several times per second and even these tend to become obsolete relatively quickly or “machined out”. This is the process whereby the algorithm stops working effectively due to market forces. Gary Stevenson, a former professional trader for Citibank, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/the-new-middle-class-gambling-addicts-how-day-trading-is-ruining-lives-wm5nbjwdm">told The Times</a>: “I was one of the most successful and best-paid traders in the world and I don’t day trade. It’s roulette.”“The people at home think they are the Wolf of Wall Street. But traders in the City are, in general, not taking bets on the short-term future of the market because there’s no way you can predict the movement. It’s impossible.”Note: In the US, an “educator” cannot receive a percentage rebate unless they are fully regulated as a broker, however nonregulated educators can receive flat payments for client introductions to the broker. These payments can be significant, and the broker is only willing to pay them due to the huge amounts of money they are making from loss-making traders.<h3 class="thin">Did you know?</h3>Since September 2021, Gamban’s blocking software has blocked access to all known “Trading Platforms”, including “Crypto” trading and “Non-Fungible Tokens” (NFT) trading platforms. Many individuals that are trading and losing money after having followed an online course are not aware that they are gambling.Our co-founder Matt Zarb-Cousin spoke to Gary Stevenson about the difference between investing strategies and speculating, and how new forms of gambling have emerged that masquerade as financial products. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://youtu.be/hK2VyOGb6CI?si=YpO32sOu-n_wkcKT">The full video is here</a>.Are you able to help a friend or loved one who may be affected by this?
