BetBlocker Partners with Casino.Guru to Deliver Finnish Language Support

A partnership between leading casino directory, Casino.Guru, and UK and US charity BetBlocker has seen the charity expand their award winning free and anonymous to use blocking software solution to the Finnish language.

Reducing friction between players and accessing support to manage their gambling has been a cornerstone of the BetBlocker project from its inception, with the service provided free of charge and with no need to register.

Language barriers represent a significant obstacle for many users and BetBlocker has been working tirelessly to translate their support into an many additional languages as possible. With an estimated 4% of the population of Finland at moderate risk of harm in 2023, according to the Finnish government’s report on gambling, the translation of BetBlocker into Finnish improves support for hundreds of thousands of people. 

“Casino.Guru has consistently led the affiliate market in terms of prioritising safer gambling.” Said BetBlocker Founder Duncan Garvie. “Their Global Self-Exclusion initiative has driven forward the dialogue around harm prevention in the sector, and have given a worked example of how safer gambling messaging can be integrated into the affiliation business model. We’re always happy to work with affiliates and Casino.Guru has made a real world difference to thousands of people by supporting us to deliver the service in Finnish.”

Simon Vincze, Head of Sustainable & Safer Gambling for Casino Guru added:

“Our partnership was established to promote efforts around cross-jurisdictional self-exclusion. A proper global system is still far off, but BetBlocker is doing an excellent job of bringing a free and anonymous blocking solution to those who need it, no matter where they are. Casino Guru is proud to support this initiative, and we expect our collaboration to have a strong impact on responsible gambling in Finland.”
