Casino Guru and BetBlocker partner to enhance self exclusion, player protection tools

Casino Guru, a platform for online casino reviews and player protection, announced a strategic partnership with BetBlocker, a tool designed to help individuals manage their gambling habits. 

The strategic partnership will primarily focus on integrating BetBlocker's blocking software with Casino Guru's Global Self-Exclusion Initiative and combine other responsible gambling features offered by both companies.

The integration aims to provide comprehensive and seamless self-exclusion for players, ensuring that those who seek help are supported by technological solutions. However, the partnership is not limited to these areas and will explore other opportunities "to make a positive impact in the field of responsible gambling," according to the companies.

Duncan Garvie, Founder of BetBlocker, stated: "We are excited to join forces with Casino Guru, a respected leader in the online gambling community. By combining our blocking technology with Casino Guru's extensive resources and global reach, we can create a more effective safety net for those struggling with gambling addiction. This collaboration is a crucial step towards a safer gambling environment for all players."

Šimon Vincze, Casino Guru’s Head of Sustainable and Safer Gambling, added: "Partnering with BetBlocker is a natural progression in our mission to promote fair and safer gambling. BetBlocker's innovative software complements our Global Self-Exclusion Initiative perfectly, providing a ready world-wide protection in the absence of a global self-exclusion system. Together, we can leverage our strengths to foster a more sustainable industry and ensure that help is readily available to those in need."

The collaboration will also involve joint efforts in research, awareness campaigns, and the development of new tools and resources aimed at supporting players and reducing gambling-related harm. 

Last month, Yogonet held an exclusive interview with Casino Guru's Šimon Vincze, in which he offered insights into how the company's project on self-exclusion standards aims to unify practice globally, making things easier for players and operators. You can revisit it here.
