France’s gambling regulator, l’Autorité Nationale des Jeux (ANJ), has launched a new digital push to raise awareness of the country’s voluntary self-exclusion system for gamblers.u200b
The national register allows people to block themselves from most regulated gambling channels as a way to protect against harms such as financial difficulties, addiction-related issues, and social isolation.
Registration in the self-exclusion file is strictly personal and confidential, and can also be requested by legal guardians acting for someone experiencing gambling problems.u200b
Once listed, an individual is barred from entering casinos and gaming clubs, accessing licensed online sports betting, horse racing, and poker sites, and using Française des Jeux or PMU games online or via retail player accounts.
