Data shows the impact of Covid-19 on behaviour in August 2020

The Gambling Commission has released further data showing how the Covid-19 period affected gambling behavior in Britain.

The data reflects the period between March and August. It covers both online and in-person gambling from licensed betting operators (LBOs) located on Britain’s main streets and also includes consumer research.
Gambling behaviors continue to evolve as the country responds to the challenges posed by Covid-19, but further underscores the importance of the Commission’s updated guide to operators.

This included a guide for online traders in May, which established the need for better affordability controls, the prevention of reverse withdrawals and restrictions on bonus offers. This was enforced for ground-based locals in June when they were allowed to reopen.
