Share

BetBlocker has teamed up with the Responsible Online Gaming Association (ROGA) to give US users free access to its anonymous gambling-blocking technology. The move is designed to help players control when and where they can gamble online, without cost or data tracking.


Good to know

  • ROGA represents around 90% of the legal sports betting industry in the US.
  • BetBlocker supported over 150,000 active users in 2025, including 10,000 in the US.
  • The app works across multiple platforms to make blocking tools easy to access.

BetBlocker’s software allows individuals to set self-imposed restrictions on gambling sites and apps. By collaborating with ROGA, the service will reach a wider audience through an association that unites most of the legitimate sports betting market in the country.

Founder Duncan Garvie said:

“The single most effective way for BetBlocker to reach the audience that stands to benefit from our tool is via partnerships with the industry. ROGA represents a coordinated effort by the U.S. industry to improve responsible gaming standards throughout the sector. Having their backing for the BetBlocker project is a significant step forward for our organization and will ensure that people who want support to structure where and when they can play online will be able to do so anonymously and for free.”

ROGA Executive Director Dr. Jennifer Shatley highlighted the partnership’s role in advancing responsible gaming:

“ROGA was established to raise the standard for responsible online gaming through collaboration, innovation, and a commitment to evidence-based practices. Making resources like BetBlocker more visible and accessible is one way we put that mission into action. We’re equipping individuals with practical tools that support their decisions and well-being.”

The BetBlocker app runs on various operating systems, reducing barriers for those seeking to limit gambling access. This flexibility supports user engagement with responsible gaming tools and encourages proactive self-management.
