Gamban boosts gambling harm prevention efforts with VRS software

The Vulnerability Registration Service (VRS), an independent vulnerable people registry, has entered into a partnership with Gamban to promote the latter’s safer gambling software to individuals who register with VRS.

VRS aims to “help flag vulnerable individuals to companies to help keep them safe” and those who register for their services can do so to “make people aware of their circumstances, or they can opt to be declined financial or related services for a period of time”.

Helen Lord, CEO of VRS, said: “Those experiencing financial vulnerability have very often experienced gambling harm.
