UK and US charity organisation, BetBlocker, synonymous with free and anonymous gambling management support services, in collaboration with Gamblers Connect, is delighted to announce the rollout of the Serbian language version of its app.

In the past 12 months, BetBlocker’s targeted language provision program has rapidly expanded. Understanding the need for friction free use of gambling management tools, the team at BetBlocker is working hard to give users the tools they need to manage their gambling habits, in their native languages. Launching the Serbian language version of the BetBlocker app is another key stepping stone on the pathway to catering for every user in their first language.   With over 7 million Serbian speakers in Serbia alone, and an estimated 3 million elsewhere, this a vast number of individuals now able to access gambling support services in their own language. In 2018, the journal International Gambling Studies, published the results of a study into problem gambling figures in Serbia and noted that 0.5% of the study participants fell into the problem gambling category. Sports betting participants in particular met the markers to gain this classification.  BetBlocker is very keen to make sure that Serbian speakers can easily access the support services that will help them gamble responsibly.

The team at BetBlocker are delighted that an affiliate website such as Gamblers Connect has shown the philanthropic spirit to work with them to offer services that can help protect the most vulnerable players out there.  Without the translation services offered pro bono by Gamblers Connect, BetBlocker would not have been able to launch their Serbian language version, and they would like to extend their thanks to the group for their help and support.

Speaking for Gamblers Connect, Gjorgje Ristikj, the Founder offered the following quote: “I’m glad to see our collaboration with BetBlocker continuing in such a positive and impactful way. Launching the Serbian version is a meaningful step forward, and we’re proud to support responsible gambling initiatives that truly make a difference.”

Duncan Garvie, Founder and Trustee of BetBlocker was thrilled when asked about the most recent language addition: “For me, this project is a win for everyone! Obviously it’s great news for Serbian gamblers that BetBlocker is now available in their language. Servia doesn’t currently have the range of support options for people looking to stop or manage their gambling, so this is a substantial step forwards in terms of harm minimisation.

But alongside this, Gamblers Connect supporting us to deliver this new service to Serbia is a clear statement of intent. The affiliate sector has been substantially under-engaged when it comes to messaging around safer gambling. And affiliates are expert communicators. No-one knows how to communicate a message to players better than affiliates. To have Gamblers Connect work with us on this project sets a fantastic example for the entire affiliate sector. One we hope will foster greater cooperation between charities and affiliates in future.”
