Yet another leading lottery operator chooses the market-leading player protection software

Neccton’s mentor software has been chosen by another primary European lottery operator to help keep their players safe from potential gambling harms.

Loteries de Catalunya – the only Spanish regional Lottery – has opted for mentor’s AI-driven real-time data analysis, which tracks possible problematic gambling behaviour. mentor works to help both players and operators to identify potential issues early, recognizing triggers such as a significant increase in deposit frequency, and alerting the operator while directly contacting the player, helping the end user make better-informed decisions.

mentor also includes modules for Fraud, AML and aCRM, so Neccton’s customers can solve many issues with a single supplier.

Neccton’s software is a result of over 15 years of academic research by Dr Michael Auer, company director and head of development. Dr Auer is regarded as a world leader in academic RG research, and mentor is the result of this work. Dr Auer’s research is also frequently cited by regulatory bodies within their operator guidelines.

Dr Auer said of Neccton’s newest client: “Another top lottery has adopted our solution, which is a wonderful endorsement as we know that lottery operators work within very strict guidelines. We are looking forward to working and growing with Loteries de Catalunya for many years to come!”

A spokesperson from Loteries de Catalunya said: “Loteries de Catalunya believes in a lottery as a form of social entertainment that is technologically up-to-date and socially inclusive, and its mission is to contribute to the cohesion of society. Is for that reason that our organization believes that mentor is a perfect solution that ultimately provides real player protection and therefore improves our commitment to preventing excessive gambling and ensures a safer gaming environment for our players.

“Dr. Auer and his team have been amazing with all this challenging implementation and we look forward to many years of successful collaboration.”

Following the successful prosecution of the Peninsula Club in Dromana, Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission (VGCCC) CEO Annette Kimmitt AM reiterated the regulator would continue to crack down on venues that allow children to enter poker machine areas.

The Magistrates’ Court of Victoria fined Victorian Amateur Turf Club, the venue owner, $7000 for 2 breaches of the Gambling Regulation Act 2003 (Vic) and ordered it to pay VGCCC costs of $3500. No conviction was recorded.

Ms Kimmitt said: “This is a warning to every venue. The onus is on you to ensure that children cannot and do not enter the gambling area or participate in any gambling activity, even if they’re with an adult.

“Equally, staff must be adequately trained and present in the gambling area to supervise while machines are in use.

“Research tells us that people who begin gambling at a young age are at greater risk of developing gambling problems as an adult.

“The rules exist to protect children from exposure to, and harm from, gambling.”

On 10 June 2023, a child entered the gambling area of the Peninsula Club twice and was able to use the poker machines on both occasions. During the second visit to the area, while with adults, the child used a poker machine for about 5 minutes, until staff intervened.

Magistrate Ayres considered the venue’s self-reporting, its lack of prior convictions, early plea and remediations implemented to reduce the chance of future offending.
