Have you heard of BetStop?

11 Sep 2023

BetStop is the National Self-Exclusion Register created by the Australian Government. The initiative is a safe and free way to block yourself from all licensed Australian online and phone gambling providers.

Signing up is fast and easy and it only takes about 5 minutes.

To get started, all you need is:

  • Your mobile phone
  • Access to your email inbox
  • Either a Medicare Card or a Driver's Licence from an Australian State or Territory.

While you are registered to BetStop, Australian licensed online and phone wagering providers should not:

  • open a wagering account for you
  • allow you to place bets, or
  • send you marketing material.

You can also nominate someone you know to support you while you are self-excluded.

If you want to sign up to BetStop or to learn more about the program, visit www.betstop.gov.au
