Wager Score has partnered with Gamban to offer users software that blocks access to online gambling websites and apps.
Wager Score is a patented technology designed to protect sports bettors' financial health and minimise the risk of harmful play through the delivery of real-time affordability data. Wager Score puts responsible gaming in the hands of bettors who unlock access to the financial empowerment tool that also converts 1% of every dollar bet on gaming partner sites into charitable, tax-deductible donations. The first of its kind patented technology has caught the attention of policymakers and the next generation of increasingly diverse bettors who look to create a more equitable, socially responsible industry.
As part of its commitment to responsible gambling, the partnership will see Wager Score providing effective, free-of-charge blocking software to users looking to take a break from gambling. Gamban blocks access to thousands of gambling sites and apps worldwide through its regularly updated database. Once the user signs up to Gamban, it is quick and easy to set-up across the user’s devices and the software is designed to be as difficult to remove as the various devices allow, providing the right balance between protection and intrusion but it is not a stand-alone solution for those struggling with gambling.
“By relying on state-of-the-art technology and working with multiple partners to ensure gamers have proper access to harm reduction tools, Wager Score is the world’s first pre-emptive tool app that actually mitigates problematic gambling behaviours,” said Bo Grey, founder of Wager Score.
Gamban blocks access to online gambling at device level. Since 2015, Gamban has gone from strength to strength, setting the standard in gambling blocking software. Gamban is the smartest and most effective software for blocking gambling sites and applications. First-hand experience of problem gambling, combined with the most talented minds in the field of self-exclusion software has resulted in the most effective cross-platform solution for creating friction and aiding willpower in the fight against gambling addiction.
Melissa Etherington, VP of Partnerships at Gamban said “We are excited to be working with Wager Score to enhance their mission to reduce gambling harm. Our blocking software will be available to anyone encouraged to take a time-out from gambling. Gambling harm can affect anyone at any time, so we fully support Wager Score’s initiative to build in affordability metrics as a normal part of betting.”
