November 9-13 is Illegal Gambling Awareness Week. We're proud to partner with International Association of Gaming Regulators (IAGR) to raise awareness about the risks of illegal gambling. Regulation helps protect players. Illegal operators intentionally operate outside the law, often leaving consumers exposed to financial risk without identity checks, dispute resolution, or responsible gambling safeguards. Visit CheckBeforeYouPlay.org before opening an account, sharing personal information, or depositing money to verify whether an operator is licensed in your location.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), youth exposed to gambling early are more likely to develop gambling problems later in life. A simple conversation can make a big difference. Learn how to protect kids at DontRegretTheBet.org.
