How much does BetBlocker cost? There is nothing at all. always. Gambling addiction is serious and usually associated with economic pressure. Unlike competitors, we don't believe it is correct to claim more rates to get people who are already economically issues to control the situation. yeah. We don't want to use people with addiction problems.What is the purpose of BETBLOCKER's parental control?
Many parents are worried about content that children may access while browsing the Internet. The main purpose of Betblocker is to control gambling, but also provides tools for parents to control sites that children can access online. With this tool, you can enter a specific URL that parents do not want their children to access.What is the sel f-reversal of Betblocker gambling?
If you set a sel f-gaming with Betblocker, the tool will automatically restrict your device so that you cannot access the Gaming Operator URL in our database. This database is updated every week, and the maximum protection is provided.After launch, can I delete my selfish gambling operator?
Gambling addiction is usually related to a state where the urge to bet cannot be controlled. So, if you can turn off this tool while sel f-confidence in gambling addiction, to prevent gambling addiction, this tool is ineffective. Therefore, once gambling addiction is activated, it cannot be released. We have made a great deal of effort to guarantee that Betblocker is as difficult as it can be deleted during sel f-confident gambling sessions, and our user support team is currently restricted. We do not support the deletion of tools.How does parental control work?
The parental control system is easy to use and can be set quickly. Just install Betblocker, select a parental control, and decide on the URL you want to limit according to the configuration process. Enabling tools applies restrictions.If BETBLOCKER is free, do I have to see a lot of ads?
no. Betblocker does not advertise any product or service. It is completely free. I want to limit my device so that I can't access gambling operators. Can I do it with parental control? Is parental control possible? Yes. One of the options when setting up parental controls is whether to include a list of gaming operator sites. While we cannot guarantee that this is fully comprehensive, it represents a very high percentage of gaming operators currently doing business, and it is updated weekly.Who founded BetBlocker?
Unfortunately, several bad actors in the gambling industry have falsely claimed to have founded BetBlocker or to have some sort of association with BetBlocker.BetBlocker was founded in 2017 together with Pogg, an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) service. If you see someone else claiming to have founded BetBlocker, that claim is false. The service handles complaints between players and online gambling operators on behalf of several regulatory bodies. BetBlocker was created as a way to help players who came to the service with complaints based on responsible gambling, especially as ADR was uncomfortable with funneling players with gambling addiction problems to paid blocking services.
In 2019, after witnessing a rapid growth in demand for the BetBlocker tool, we came to the conclusion that it was not financially feasible to continue to operate BetBlocker as an add-on to the ADR service. At this point, BetBlocker was separated from the business and incorporated as its own charity. Since then, BetBlocker has been funded by donations from many companies in the gaming industry. This move provided the project with significant additional funding, improving both the operation of the app itself and user support to help those in need.
BetBlocker may now have its own legal personality, but the people making the decisions are the same people who founded the service. The board of directors is made up of various team members from ADR services. Currently, there are a few employees who work for BetBlocker, but no one employed by ADR services receives income from BetBlocker. The charity's governing documents exclude any of the trustees from serving as employees of the charity. As such, the board that governs the service is made up of individuals who donate their time freely to the project.
If you need to contact the Board, please contact Duncan Garvey at [email protected]. Requests for support sent to this email address will not receive a reply.
Can I remove Assertive Gambling after I have enabled it?
no. Once you activate the self-confident gambling session, the only way to end it is to wait until the selected Self-Confident gambling session is completed. In order to protect the ethical reasons and problematic players, our support team will not help to disable the active Self-Confidence Gambling session in any situation.I don't want children to access websites that provide gambling information and ads. Can you do it with Betblocker?
That's right in a limited range. Today, there are hundreds of thousands of websites that provide information about online gambling. Creating or maintaining a comprehensive list of all these sites is not realistic. Instead of creating such a list, you can use keyword blockers. The keyword blocker blocks pages that include specific keywords often used on gambling websites. In this strategy, a large amount of ã ¢, ¬, ¬ ë œ œ œ will occur. This strategy is very troublesome, and you may not be able to access a lot of hig h-quality education resources. So we decided to find the middle point. We do not use keyword keywords and blockers, but some of the most voluminous search keywords are the most frequently displayed game information and promotion sites listed on the first page of Google. I made a hundred. Of course, this list does not cover everything, but I believe it will be a good opportunity for parents to prevent children from accessing things that are not suitable for age.
Can I install Betblocker as many times as possible?
Betblocker can be installed on many times, as many as you want, and on any platform. There are no restrictions.How long can you advertise yourself?

Is it worth using Betblocker if you have already registered in Gamstop?
Sel f-blocking programs in countries such as Gamstop and Spelpaus are an excellent program that anyone who is worried about gambling should look up (if it is available in your country (if it is a similar program)).However, these sel f-exclusion systems apply only to gambling sites approved in this country. Even if you say thousands, hundreds of malicious gambling operators have accepted a player that has not been approved by the sel f-exclusion system in each country, so there is a crack in the provided protection.
Fortunately, Betblocker is not based on individual countries. In fact, we are trying to cover all gambling operator sites, regardless of the license. Therefore, casinos that are not registered in Gamstop or Spelpaus are also limited.
BETBLOCKER provides the best protection against recidivism while the customer feels vulnerabilities in cooperation with the sel f-exclusion systems of each country.
Can you expand your gambling trust?
yes. Betblocker can extend the gambling sel f-report period at any time while gambling sel f-report is valid. This is applied immediately.I want to prevent children from accessing a website that contains sexual content. Can you do it with Betblocker?
That's right in a limited range. Today, there are hundreds of thousands of porn sites online. Creating and managing a comprehensive list of all these sites is not realistic. Instead of creating such a list, you can use keyword blockers. The keyword blocker blocks pages that include specific keywords often used on pornosite. In this strategy, a large amount of ã ¢, ¬, ¬ ë œ œ œ œ. This strategy is very annoying and may not be able to access many hig h-quality education resources. So we decided to find the middle point. We do not use keyword blockers, but we have made hundreds of Pornosite lists that are most frequently displayed on the first page for some of the highest search keywords of Google (English). Ta. In this particular industry, this list is not absolute, but many of the most common sites that are often found during web search, although a small number of sites monopolize search results for large quantities of search words. You can narrow down. Of course, this list does not cover everything, but I believe that parents will be a good opportunity to prevent children from accessing the web.Can I block from a site other than a gambling operator?
This depends on the platform used.We have optional lists of gambling information and advertising sites that can be included in the sel f-promotion of the game. This works on all platforms.
Windows/Apple/Linux applications can provide options to enter your own custom site restrictions, but only when using local version blocks. If you select a VPN version, custom restrictions are not possible.
Note that the URLs that are included in your gambling conviction remain blocked for the whole gambling. You cannot delete the URL from once enabled gambling conviction.
Our computer is a community device. Is it possible to restrict children so that they can't access various URLs?
yes. When you create a parenting control, you will be asked to enter your password. Once the restriction is enabled, you can disable the restriction simply by opening the tool and entering a password. In this way, you can enable restrictions while your child is online and turn it off when you browse yourself.
What kind of information do you collect users?
The user's personal information is not collected. This service is completely used anonymously. We do not collect e-mail addresses, phone numbers, names, or other information that can be used to track users.We understand that gambling addiction is embarrassing. We are willing to help you, but you don't have to know who you are.
This information is used to deal with funding (potential donors often want to know the number of people using services), and to deal with the user support request in the most efficient way. 。
If you forget your password, how can you reset it?
Unfortunately, there is no way to reset your password. This service is designed so that user information is not collected as much as possible. This includes not to collect email addresses. You cannot send a password reset message because you do not collect your email address.Therefore, there is no option to reset the password, so if you may need a password, it is essential to store your password safely.
Remember that passwords are only required for users who choose to self-exclude permanently and want to lift their self-exclusion after 5 years, or for parental control users, and that these restrictions are lifted automatically at the end of the selected exclusion period.
Why do I need to select a period for parental control?
The BetBlocker tool is primarily intended to help problem gamblers control their addiction. Unfortunately, unscrupulous marketers in the gambling industry have repeatedly targeted these vulnerable people, seeing them as valuable. This kind of cynical, unethical and sometimes illegal activity has led us to not collect personal information (contact details) from BetBlocker users. That way we can be sure that we cannot be accused of using BetBlocker to aggregate marketing lists for inappropriate activities. Also, even if our system were hacked, the attackers would not be able to obtain contact information for individuals who are trying to prevent you from playing games. However, as a result, they would not be able to reset your password. Without an email address to verify the identity of the person requesting a password reset, we cannot verify that the person setting up the tool is the one who wants to lift the restrictions. This is why parental control requires you to select a period for the restrictions. The restrictions will be lifted automatically at the end of the selected restriction period. This means that even if you forget your password, the restrictions will be lifted just by waiting for the following:Will my gambling problem be automatically lifted when the selected exclusion period ends?
If you select 24 hours, 2 days, 3 days, 5 days, 1 week, 2 weeks or 1 month, the exclusion will be lifted automatically at the end of the selected period.
- If you select 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years or 5 years, the block will continue indefinitely unless you specifically disable it.
If your restriction period ends and you choose to disable it, the restriction will remain in effect for another week. This is called a "cooling off" period and is intended to prevent you from acting on potentially harmful impulses. You can extend your trust at any time during the cooling off period and the restriction will not end. If you do not extend your gambling trust during the cooling off period, the restriction will automatically be lifted at the end of the one-week cooling off period.
Can I extend the restriction period?
Yes. At any time while the parental control restrictions are active, you can visit BetBlocker to extend the restriction period. This will be applied immediately.How does BetBlocker affect battery consumption?
We have done some rot resours research to see how betblocker affects battery life while the app is active. Here are the results. These are general tests and are meant to give you an idea of the impact. Your experience may vary depending on other apps running on your phone, the make and model of your phone, and the size of your battery.Android (3000mAh battery size):
1. Active mode - Our tests have shown that while BetBlocker is active and the phone is constantly being used for internet browsing and gaming, battery life was 14 hours. Under the same conditions with BetBlocker not active, battery life was 15 hours and 30 minutes. This equates to a reduction in battery life of approximately 10%. 2. Sleep mode - Our tests have shown that while BetBlocker is active and the phone is not being used (powered on but not doing anything), the battery is depleted in 96 hours. Under the same conditions, battery life was 97 hours while BetBlocker is not active. This equates to a reduction in battery life of 1%.
How do BetBlocker's restrictions compare to the restrictions required by various internet gambling regulatory agencies?
The restrictions offered by BetBlocker represent the strongest restrictions required by a combination of the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gambling Authority: - As required by the UKGC, self-exclusion automatically excludes you from all licensed properties (and thousands of other operators); - As required by the UKGC, once the self-exclusion gambling feature is activated, it cannot be lifted until the entire period of the selected exclusion has been completed; - As required by the UKGC, gambling addiction of more than 6 months (actually it applies from 2 months onwards) will remain automatically applied after the end of the exclusion period and can only be lifted at your explicit request, and a cooling-off period is required in the event of a gambling addiction removal request; As required by the MGA, the cooling-off period imposed after a gambling addiction removal request will last until the end of the entire gambling addiction removal period.
Contact Support
- How can I contact our support team? You can contact us by email or use the form on this page.- How long will it take to get an answer? This depends on several factors. BetBlocker is a charity and we use all our available funds to maintain and improve our service to protect our users. Staffing is far from our biggest expense for a small charity like us, and we want to keep our employment numbers low so that funds are available for improvements.
Our user support team is small. We will try to respond to your request within 24 hours, but response times may vary depending on many factors, including the volume of support requests we receive and the availability of team members to respond.
- Why haven't I received a response from support?
If you haven't received a response for any reason, it's possible that you used the web form or contact form and forgot to include an email address for your inquiry. Please send us an email directly at [Email Protected].
If you don't include an email address, we will receive your message but won't be able to reply.
We try not to collect information about these users because we regularly hear from them, such as "I want you to add a URL to the restriction list" or "Thank you for providing the app". However, if you would like a reply, please let us know where to reply.
Someone enabled betblocker on my device. Can you remove it?
Unfortunately, you cannot remove BetBlocker until the selected restriction has expired. We understand that you may be frustrated if someone else created a block on your behalf, but there is no way to prove who specifically agreed to the terms of use. If someone sets BetBlocker on your device, we have no choice but to assume that they are the owner of the device or have been authorized to set this restriction.I sell my device to someone else. Can you remove BetBlocker?
Unfortunately, BetBlocker will not be removed until the selected restriction period has expired. When you activate BetBlocker, you agree to the terms of use by clearly stating that this block cannot be removed until the restriction period has expired. This is also highlighted during the activation process. We are happy to help you solve technical issues, but we will not lift the tool until the block period you selected has been completed.Technical Issues
- I am having technical issues, can you delete the app? With millions of software, hardware, and network combinations in use today, occasionally some users experience technical issues with BetBlocker. Our development team will investigate your issue and hopefully provide you with a solution as soon as possible, but this may take some time. We will not delete the app unless there is no other way to solve your problem.- Why delete the app now if you don't want to wait for a resolution to your technical issues? BetBlocker is a tool specifically intended to prevent users from accessing gambling services who feel that access to gambling services is harming their lives. Access to online gambling services for individuals with compulsive gambling-related tendencies can cause significant damage to their lives in a short period of time.
Finally, based on the main features of our tool, our priority should be to restrict access to gambling services first and foremost. Does this mean that occasionally some users will be dissatisfied when they are affected by a bug that takes time to resolve? Yes. But we have to decide which is the lesser of two evils: to leave such users frustrated while we resolve the issue, or to expose all our users to gambling services that may cause huge damage to their lives just by claiming to have technical problems. There is no good choice we can make in this situation - some people will end up unhappy no matter what we do - but it is better to cause some dissatisfaction than for someone to take an action that will cause huge damage to the lives of our users.
The severity of a user's problem is not up to us to evaluate. We have to treat each user's problem as serious, no matter what they say, while we try to remove the service.
We do not like and do not want to disappoint our users. But we want you to understand that disappointment is a low-risk option and is much preferable to making the hard choice than to someone who ends up losing money that they cannot afford to lose because they tried to satisfy them in the short term.
Local Network Some versions of BetBlocker use a VPN to enforce game restrictions. There are some complexities to this special setup, but for "local network" purposes, your device will appear to be accessed from the VPN server, not from a local connection. Therefore, it will not be recognized as part of the local network and will not be accessible. This means that you may not be able to access other devices on the local network, such as printers. There is nothing you can do about this. For some platforms, using a VPN is the only way to enforce the requested restrictions.
