Gamblers Connect is delighted to report that the internationally recognised safer gambling charity, BetBlocker, has announced the expansion of their support for vulnerable players to include a French language feature for the app.
UK and US charity organisation, BetBlocker, provides free and anonymous blocking software, supporting users to manage their interactions with gambling in a safe and sustainable manner.
BetBlocker has been rapidly expanding its support to include new languages over the last 12 months (Italian, Catalan, etc.), with the inclusion of French raising the total languages supported to 20.
With an estimated 34 million gamblers in France alone, including Canada in North America and many countries on the African continent and the Carribean using French as their official language, this launch ensures that a valuable new tool is accessible within a substantial worldwide community.
Duncan Garvie, Founder and Trustee of BetBlocker, was thrilled when asked about the most recent language addition:
I’m really pleased to open up BetBlocker to French-speaking communities. With the recent launch of the US arm of our charity, raising our profile in North America is a strategic priority. This launch helps us support our French Canadian friends. Beyond this, I’m always keen to do whatever we can to support the emerging markets in Africa. This is an underserved community where a free and anonymous service like BetBlocker can make a meaningful difference in a lot of lives. I want to personally thank Xavi D. and Christina Theophilos for their tireless work supporting us in delivering this translation. BetBlocker could not have done this without them.
BetBlocker is a LEADING UK-registered charity that provides users with a free-to-use app that can block their device from accessing over 90k gambling websites and 1.5k gambling apps, and it supports tens of thousands of active users every day, in a service that can be used anonymously.
Duncan Garvie will be presenting at the Playsponsible Academy in Vienna on Thursday, the 3rd of April.
