"It is pleasing to see the decline in high-risk revenue during the fourth quarter of last year. We know that the share fluctuates between quarters, but the long-term trend is showing a steady decline. We remain dedicated and focused on improving our systems and processes to ensure we offer our customers a safe and fun experience," says Esther Scheepers, Head of Responsible Gambling at Kindred Group.

"The increased focus on responsible gambling by regulators and the industry is welcomed. From our end, we see that by combining our expertise with emerging technologies, we can further enhance detection capabilities. We are currently working on our existing detection system in combination with an additional system that will enable us to integrate more robust compliance features and optimize our overall approach to safer gambling. Furthermore, we are exploring opportunities to expand our research efforts, aiming to support data-driven discussions and looking at emerging trends in consumer protection. All these aspects are important to protect the integrity of the licence model and maintain a level playing field," concludes Esther Scheepers.

In February 2021, Kindred started to communicate about its share of revenue of harmful gambling and reports this data and the improvement effect after interventions each quarter. This is a key part of Kindred's work with fostering a factual and transparent dialogue, paving the way for a more sustainable industry.

Kindred also publishes specific RG data for the Swedish market together with ATG and Svenska Spel. Kindred's RG data for the second half of 2024 can be found here.

Correction

The Q3 2024 data for social, low and medium risk revenue published on 23 October 2024 contained mistakes and has been corrected on Kindred's website: https://www.kindredgroup.com/sustainability/our-journey-towards-zero/. The published high-risk revenue of 3.2% remains correct.
