Pinnacle includes gambling blocking software for at-risk players

Pinnacle has partnered with Gamban to provide players with software that blocks online gambling sites and apps across all devices.

The new partnership will allow Pinnacle to provide free protection to at-risk players seeking self-exclusion from digital gambling.

The software, if running, will block customers from all gambling sites, not just the Pinnacle bookmaker.

Veronique Dos Reis, Head of Law & Compliance at Pinnacle, said: “Responsible gaming and player welfare are industry concerns, so we are excited to partner with Gamban to offer our customers a one-stop self-exclusion tool that covers all gambling sites. not just our own.

“It is important that those at risk have access to the simplest tools to effectively protect themselves, and we are confident that this free tool will be a significant addition to our responsible gaming arsenal,” she added.

Gamban co-founder Jack Simons commented, "In a world where the lure of immediate gratification through digital activities is becoming more tempting, we want to help people regain control and balance."
