Responsible Gambling for NetBet Customers
Online gaming and sports betting platform NetBet are proud and excited to announce a new era of commitment to responsible gambling. For the first time ever in the industry, as part of Responsible Gambling Week, NetBet have pioneered a workshop dedicated to helping protect and inform customers about problem gambling.
In light of our EGR award nomination for ‘Socially responsible operator’, we invited a group of our customers to talk about how to gamble safely, recognise the early signs of problem gambling and seek help if needed.
Taking place over two days in November, this London event featured several speakers in collaboration with NetBet who shared professional advice as well as personal stories relating to problem gambling. Some of the discussions included:
- Signs of potential loss of control
- Risks associated with loss of control
- Tools and methods for protecting yourself
- How to spot signs of problem gambling in another
- Where to seek help if you think your gambling has become problematic
Throughout the sessions, attendees took part in various scenarios and were shown specific tools and support systems available to them. Whatever stage of problem gambling a person may be experiencing, there are plenty of options available to help them deal with it.
At NetBet, we take the safety and mental health of our customers extremely seriously, and believe it is our duty to educate and support them when it comes to responsible gambling. We hope this event will raise awareness about responsible gambling as well as demonstrate NetBet’s commitment to the cause.
As a gambling platform, we understand more than anyone the potential risks of problem gambling; acknowledging the issue is the first step, and who better to raise awareness and connect with potentially vulnerable people than us?
We believe that safe, responsible gambling is a great form of entertainment, and here at NetBet we will go above and beyond to ensure every customer is safe and secure. We have 18 years of industry experience behind us, and we will continue to make the online gaming landscape a better place for everyone in the future.

kwiff, the super-charged sports betting service, has announced a multi-year partnership with Millwall FC.
kwiff will use its new partnership with Millwall FC to reward supporters through a range of engaging content and matchday activations.
This latest partnership follows the launch of kwiff’s innovative ‘Curfew’ tool, allowing users to customise their platform access restrictions during specific time periods across the day, strengthening their commitment to responsible gaming and giving players greater control over their access. Curfew complements kwiff’s real-time player monitoring system, which tracks behaviour to detect potential risks. kwiff’s efforts in Responsible Gaming have been recognised by GamCare, which awarded the company the ‘Safer Gambling Standard’ certification.
Last season, kwiff sponsored Millwall’s sleeve for the Emirates FA Cup Fifth Round tie against Crystal Palace in March 2025.
Garry McGibbon, Director of Spryme Limited, commented: “It’s great to enter into this partnership with Millwall FC and we’re excited to see how it progresses. The foundation of any strong partnership is the people you work with. If our experience so far is anything to go by, it’s going to be a privilege working with a proper football club with such strong traditions. We’re really looking forward to it.”
Luke Wilson, Commercial Director at The Den, added: “We’re thrilled to be continuing our relationship with kwiff, following on from their sleeve sponsorship of our FA Cup Fifth Round tie last season. Within a competitive market, they have quickly established themselves as a fast-growing and innovative brand. We’re looking forward to working with Garry and his team throughout the coming season as we continue to support the growth of their brand within the UK.”
