How to create safer online gambling

Author: Bournemouth University Published: October 2022

Summary

The research, led by Bournemouth University and commissioned by GambleAware, looked at how what information and resources are available to promote safer gambling.

Topics covered

  • how clear safer gambling information is on gambling websites
  • recommendations to make gambling websites safer

Key findings

Gambling websites need to make safety information easier to find, especially on mobile phones. This can be done by:

- using videos and pictures could help make safety messages more interesting
- gambling websites explaining clearly how games work and be transparent about the chances of winning

Working together with researchers could help gambling companies create better safety tools.
