GAMSTOP records nearly 2,000 new registrants a week on average in 2024
- GAMSTOP recorded 49,494 total new registrants in the first half of 2024, taking the total number signed up for the self-exclusion scheme to 482,815.
- There was a 12% year-on-year increase in the number of 16-24 year old registrants as the average age of those joining the scheme continuing to fall.
GAMSTOP, the national self-exclusion scheme for online gambling, has today announced that more than 1,904 consumers registered with the service in an average week during the first half of 2024.
More than 49,000 people have self-excluded from gambling sites in 2024 so far. April 2024 was a record-breaking month with 8,686 new registrants – the highest volume of monthly registrations since GAMSTOP’s inception in April 2018.
The Euros also appears to have had an impact, with registrations up 8% for the first half of July (knockout stages) compared to the same period last year. There were unusually high volumes of registrations on three days in particular – the day after England’s group stage victory over Serbia, the day after England’s extra time last 16 victory over Slovakia and the day after the final.
A total of 482,815 people have registered with GAMSTOP from its launch to the end of June 2024. The ongoing increase in registrations suggests that self-exclusion continues to be an important tool for consumers facing challenges with their gambling, giving them a chance to pause and seek additional support.
The age of those choosing to use GAMSTOP’s service continues to get younger. One in two of those who registered in H1 2024 were aged 16-35. Furthermore, there was a 12% year-on-year increase in the number of 16–24-year-olds choosing to exclude themselves from all online gambling sites.
Nearly half of GAMSTOP registrants (49%) signed up for a five-year exclusion – the longest timeframe currently available. Consumers can also choose to self-exclude for shorter periods of six months or one year.
Those registered continue to be mostly men, with 71% of registrants in the first half of the year identifying as male.
Responding to these latest findings, GAMSTOP CEO, Fiona Palmer said: “The increasing number of registrations we have seen in the first half of 2024 could reflect a growing awareness and proactive approach among individuals to tackle gambling-related issues. Particularly concerning is the 12% year-on-year rise in registrations among 16-24-year-olds, indicating the urgent need for targeted support for younger age groups and preventative education to this demographic.
GAMSTOP’s mission remains steadfast: to provide a crucial safety net for those struggling with gambling. The continuing rise in registration figures affirm the importance and effectiveness of our service in helping people reclaim control over their lives.”

PartnerMatrix, part of the EveryMatrix Group, has signed an exclusive collaboration with Broadway Platform, a Player Account Management platform (PAM) developed by SPRIBE, to expand distribution of the PartnerMatrix Agent System. The agreement was announced Monday, June 29th, 2026, in Malta.
Under the deal, Broadway Platform will introduce the PartnerMatrix Agent System to its clients as a tool to manage and scale offline traffic operations alongside digital affiliate activity.

The PartnerMatrix Agent System offers operators a powerful framework for managing both affiliate and agent-driven acquisition within a single ecosystem.

Intelitics adds generative AI visual reporting tool for iGaming marketers
Intelitics has launched Actionable Intelligence, a generative AI reporting feature designed to let iGaming and sports betting marketing teams create custom data visualisations on demand using plain-language questions.
The company said the tool builds on Intelitics’ existing reporting stack used to track partner performance, campaign ROI and acquisition metrics. Instead of commissioning a new report or writing code, users can query the same dataset and receive a chart or visualisation in response.
Use cases cited by Intelitics include comparing partner performance by traffic source, drilling into individual campaigns, and breaking down player value by acquisition channel. Intelitics said the feature interprets iGaming and affiliate marketing terms including partners, offers, traffic sources, player value, acquisition channels, GGR and NGR, without requiring users to translate requests into SQL.
“The data our customers need to make better decisions has always been inside Intelitics,” said Allan Stone, founder and CEO of Intelitics. “Actionable Intelligence makes it accessible on their terms, with no technical skills required and no waiting for a report to be built. We designed it so that everyone on a marketing team, not just the analysts, can explore their data and act on what they find – and we built it to understand the way iGaming and affiliate marketers actually talk about their business, from partners and offers to GGR and NGR.”
On data governance, Intelitics said Actionable Intelligence runs within each customer’s Intelitics environment. The company stated that customer data is not pooled across accounts, shared with third parties, or used to train any model outside that environment, and that each visualisation is generated only from the customer’s own Intelitics data. The feature is available to Intelitics customers.
