Safer Gambling Week: mkodo’s commitment
mkodo Team
With Safer Gambling Week in its sixth year, we wanted to delve into the crucial role that technology plays in ensuring a safer gambling environment and explore the various ways in which our services and products contribute to the safety and well-being of your customers.
The importance of responsible gambling:
Responsible gambling is at the core of a sustainable and ethical iGaming industry. It encompasses a range of practices that protect players from the potential harm associated with gambling. These practices include setting time and money limits, self-exclusion tools, and providing access to resources for those who may develop a gambling-related problem.
Our commitment to Safer Gambling:
Self-exclusion tools:
Our front-end technology includes robust self-exclusion features, allowing players to take a break or exclude themselves from gambling activities if they feel their habits are becoming problematic.
Age verification:
We implement strict age verification measures to ensure that only individuals of legal gambling age can access our clients' products, helping prevent underage gambling.
Location verification:
Our dedicated geolocation service, GeoLocs, enables players to quickly and easily verify their location within an operator's app or website and blocks those who are outside of the region – helping to eliminate fraudulent activity.
Responsible gambling information:
Our solutions include user-friendly access to safer gambling information and resources, so players can educate themselves on the potential risks and seek help if needed.
Session limits:
We provide options for players to set session time limits, helping them manage their gaming time effectively.
Spending limits:
Our technology allows players to establish spending limits, ensuring they stay within their financial boundaries.
Analytics and reporting:
Our platforms offer real-time analytics to operators, helping them monitor player behaviour for signs of problem gambling and take appropriate action.
Collaboration and support:
Safer Gambling Week is a testament to the power of collaboration. We encourage all stakeholders in the iGaming industry to work together to create a safe and enjoyable environment for players. By sharing best practices and knowledge, we can collectively reduce the potential harms associated with gambling.
