BetBlocker is a charity organization that provides blocking software allowing users to manage and limit their access to online gambling platforms.
Duncan Garvie, founder of BetBlocker, highlighted: “Brazil is the #1 country in terms of uptake of BetBlocker, far surpassing any other country. We've seen close to 500% growth in monthly users supported in the local market since January this year, and in October, Brazil was the first country ever to surpass 10k active users in a single month.”
The BetBlocker app is available for Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, Linux, and Fire OS, and can be installed in less than two minutes.
So far in 2025, BetBlocker has supported almost a quarter of a million unique users worldwide — including over 15,000 in the United States — have installed and actively use this tool.
BetBlocker is on track to support over 100,000 active users in Europe alone in 2025 and is available in Bulgarian, Catalan, Czech, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Maltese, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Serbian, Spanish, Swedish, and Ukrainian.
As iGaming offerings continue to expand, mobile self-exclusion software is gaining popularity. In recent years, tools such as BetBlocker, Gamban, and Gamblock have been innovating new ways for problem gamblers to exclude themselves from betting.
The company will soon introduce a scheduling feature that will allow users to customize blocking periods according to their needs, reinforcing its player-centered approach.
BetBlocker also recently announced that it has surpassed 10,000 active users in Canada and Kenya this year — the fifth and sixth countries to reach this threshold — joining the United States, Brazil, Romania, and the United Kingdom, demonstrating the project’s wide-reaching growth in 2025.
