A new initiative to promote safer gambling in Malta has been launched through a partnership between EveryMatrix, BetBlocker and the Responsible Gaming Foundation (RGF).

The collaboration introduces a Maltese version of BetBlocker as part of European Safer Gambling Week 2024.

BetBlocker allows users to block access to gambling sites and apps, supporting those seeking to manage their gambling habits.

The software’s new Maltese translation aims to enhance accessibility for local players, improving engagement by providing instructions in their native language.

This step is hoped to increase the likelihood of users successfully setting up the tool to support responsible gambling.

Commenting on the development, Duncan Garvie, Founder and Trustee of BetBlocker, stated: “One of the biggest challenges for BetBlocker is ensuring that a technologically complex app is as simple as possible for users to set up.

“Currently, BetBlocker can take a user from download to blocked in under 2 minutes. But that is only the case where the user finds the set-up instructions easy to engage with.

“Where a user is able to access BetBlocker in the language that they are most confident in, the chances of them converting to an active block is far higher.”

Kevin O’Neill, General Manager for the Responsible Gaming Foundation, added: “The Responsible Gaming Foundation is proud to collaborate with BetBlocker and EveryMatrix on this initiative. Translating BetBlocker into Maltese is a significant step towards accessibility and inclusivity, ensuring that players can effectively manage their gambling habits in their native language.

“This project demonstrates the power of partnerships in enhancing player protection and underscores the importance of providing players with tools that promote responsible decision-making.”
