On Tuesday, DraftKings declared its partnership with BetBlocker to enhance awareness and availability of responsible gaming measures.

BetBlocker is a charitable organization located in the UK that offers free software enabling gamblers to set limitations on their gaming activities across all devices.

DraftKings Senior Director of Responsible Gaming, Chrissy Thurmond, expressed admiration for BetBlocker’s valuable efforts in promoting safer gambling. DraftKings is delighted to collaborate with this dynamic and innovative not-for-profit organization, which is dedicated to advancing responsible gaming in a comprehensive and user-friendly manner. Thurmond emphasized the shared belief between DraftKings and BetBlocker that technology and innovation play a crucial role in ensuring safer gambling practices. Moreover, Thurmond extended a warm welcome to BetBlocker as they expand their presence in North America, after achieving significant success in their endeavors overseas.

What is BetBlocker?

BetBlocker’s comprehensive free software extends its coverage to numerous gaming sites worldwide, not limited to just Michigan. This inclusive approach encompasses unlicensed operators as well. While Michigan online sportsbooks and casinos provide tools enabling customers to set limits on their respective platforms, BetBlocker offers the advantage of covering all these platforms simultaneously.

According to a joint release from BetBlocker and DraftKings, the downloading process allows for anonymous access without storing any personal data.

Customers have the option to utilize it for controlling the duration and manner of their gameplay. This encompasses the ability to establish time limits ranging from days, weeks, months, or even years. Additionally, customers can designate specific days of the week for non-availability.

BetBlocker’s Chief of Safer Gambling Partnerships, Pedro Romero, expressed excitement over the collaboration with DraftKings, a prominent figure in the sports betting and gaming industry. This partnership aims to broaden BetBlocker’s software reach beyond the U.K. and Europe, making it available to players in the United States and Canada. Romero acknowledged DraftKings’ commendable efforts in promoting responsible gaming and expressed gratitude for their support and cooperation in raising awareness about safer play technology. He encouraged other operators to take inspiration from DraftKings’ proactive approach in ensuring that players across regions have access to the necessary knowledge and tools for responsible betting.

DraftKings adding to responsible gaming initiatives

According to the statement, DraftKings is committed to promoting responsible gaming among its customers by implementing various measures such as utilizing technology, training their staff, and providing educational resources to ensure safer play.

The leading effort in social responsibility is the S.E.R.V.E.S. program, which stands for Service, Equity, Responsible Gaming, Vitality, Entrepreneurship, and Sports.

Customers using the DraftKings MI sportsbook and casino app have the ability to establish their own deposit, wager, or time limits. They also have the option to take a “cool off” period, ranging from three days to four weeks, or select a self-exclusion period of either one year or five years.
