Thank you to the amazing Gamban Team and its founders @mattzarb and Jack Symons for reposing faith in us. It’s one of the rare occasions where @GoI_MeitY has reversed its order of blocking content under Section 69A of the IT Act. Grateful to the Hon’ble Delhi High Court for its directions to MeitY & to the officials of MeitY & the Inter-Ministerial Committee for giving us a patient hearing & an opportunity to address all their concerns. @SecretaryMEITY
We would like to thank the Government of India for recognising that Gamban should be accessible in the country and we look forward to engaging and working with them in the fight against illicit gambling and addiction.

Thank you #millionpoundshot for making the people harmed by the predatory practices of the online casino industry feel seen
Bradley Walsh’s Million Pound Shot on C4 depicts the anguish felt by so many people who are lured into highly addictive forms of gambling. It should be a wake-up call to the government to end all gambling ads. Write to your MP: cega.org.uk/#write-mp

Gamban are really excited to partner with Free Me South Africa to provide our award-winning blocking software to FMSA’s Workplace Gambling Harm Reduction Management System. The South African Responsible Gambling Foundation has warned that the country's boom in sports betting could lead to greater financial and mental health harm. Our partnership, alongside other practical resources, will give both employers and employees the tools to help reduce harm caused by online gambling. We are looking forward to working closely with Free Me South Africa.

Prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket don’t use the typical language that most betting sites use. Instead, they use words that make betting feel like investing, framing the activity in a more positive and productive light. This changes how you feel about betting on these sites, making it feel less risky. You haven’t “lost money”, you’ve “taken a loss on your investment portfolio.” 60% of prediction-market sports bettors believed winning was down to skill, compared with 50% of sportsbook users. Prediction markets feel more sophisticated and skill-based, but carry the same dangers as traditional gambling. Gamban recognises this, and blocks all prediction markets, CFDs, cryptocurrency exchanges, binary options, forex trading and event contracts.

Only the gambling industry would lay thousands of workers off, replace them with AI and argue this is why the sector should be taxed LESS — totally detached from the real world. What’s the point of a legal gambling industry that doesn’t create jobs, pay enough tax or reduce harm?
