Proactive outreach calls – a short and effective intervention to mitigate gambling harm
We’ve walked alongside many gambling operators as the industry has gradually shifted from being reactive to becoming more proactive and preventive—driven by increasingly clear regulatory requirements in many jurisdictions. The trend began in Northern Europe, and recently, Canadian provinces have followed suit.
Signs of problem gambling that may be missed when relying solely on gambling data
As data analytic tools play an increasingly important role in identifying and communicating with at-risk players, it's crucial to understand which signs of problem gambling can be detected through data alone – and, perhaps more importantly, which ones cannot.

One test, many opportunities
Three practical examples and use cases of GamTest implementations in every-day operation.
Who should gambling operators call?
Gambling companies can reach out to players in various ways, and usually, making a duty of care call isn’t the first choice. However, if a customer doesn’t respond to other forms of contact or if the desired effect isn’t achieved, calling customers is an effective option.
Three ways to use GamTest
We don’t want to resort to calling GamTest a Swiss army knife—a multi-purpose tool where none of the built-in tools are the best for their respective jobs (sorry all Swiss army knife fans). Because although GamTest can be used in many different ways, it truly performs its job really well. This has been proven in research studies and is evident in user reviews.

Duty of Care calls as a service
That's up to the gambling operator to decide, but typically, they are concerned about players exhibiting signs of risky gambling behaviour. Common examples include those who have wagered significant amounts in the past month, individuals who have altered their gambling habits and display signs of risky behaviour, or players with high deposit limits.

What might happen if you call your biggest gamblers and ask them how they feel about their gambling and whether they’re interested in making some changes?
The impact of educating employees on Responsible Gambling strategies
In the fast-paced world of gambling, the responsibility of operators extends beyond providing entertainment. It involves a critical commitment to promoting responsible gambling. This commitment is not just a matter of regulatory compliance but also a cornerstone of sustainable business practice. Recent studies shed light on the effectiveness of such training and its impact on both employees and players.
