SPORTSBET’S COMMITMENT TO SAFER GAMBLING

Sportsbet has been a leader in establishing responsible gambling initiatives and tools to protect its customers and the wider community. It has supported restrictions on advertising to mitigate the risk of advertising indirectly to minors (such as restrictions on television advertising prior to 8PM), and in 2017 played a key role in establishing the independent peak body representing online wagering, Responsible Wagering Australia.

Sportsbet’s commitment to responsible gambling is genuine and demonstrated through the wide range of initiatives and tools they offer that go over and above industry requirements.

Everyone at Sportsbet has a role to play in bringing our commitment to Responsible Gambling to life.
