  • 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.”

Scaling In-App Traffic in iGaming: A Performance-Driven Approach

Published

on

scaling-in-app-traffic-in-igaming:-a-performance-driven-approach

Traffy, a performance marketing agency specializing in in-app traffic, has seen a clear shift in how iGaming campaigns scale today.

The era of “launch and forget” in iGaming is over. The market has become more competitive, and users are more demanding than ever. Scaling campaigns is no longer just about volume — success now depends on the depth of analytics, the speed of response to user behavior, and traffic quality.

Market Transformation

In the past, scaling followed a simple logic: more traffic meant more conversions. Today, that approach no longer works. Users have become more selective, and both CPA and ROI are directly tied to post-deposit behavior.

If advertisers fail to track key performance indicators within the first 72 hours — including user activity, repeat deposits, and conversion to FTD — budgets are spent without control, and scaling turns into guesswork.

New Requirements for Scaling

Scaling campaigns today requires a much more structured approach:

  • Funnel analysis within the first 72 hours to quickly identify effective setups
  • Traffic segmentation and strict quality control
  • Continuous monitoring of user activity, repeat deposits, and FTD conversion rates

If there is no positive performance trend within the first three days, the setup is stopped immediately. This allows teams to minimize losses and reallocate budgets toward high-performing campaigns.

Common Pitfalls of Legacy Approaches

Many operators and affiliates still rely on outdated strategies that limit their ability to scale effectively:

  • Focusing solely on CPA without considering unit economics and profitability
  • Scaling broadly without proper traffic segmentation
  • Lack of predictive analytics in the early stages of campaigns
  • Underestimating traffic quality and fraud risks

These issues lead to unstable performance, rising CPI, and a loss of control over ROI.

The Traffy Approach

At Traffy, we build scalable infrastructure designed to manage in-app traffic with a performance-first mindset.

  • Traffic quality control: black and white lists, ongoing audits, and integrated fraud analytics
  • AI-driven optimization: algorithms that predict campaign performance and dynamically reallocate budgets toward the most efficient setups
  • Performance focus: real-time analysis of the first 72 hours, deep segmentation, and continuous monitoring of key metrics and ROI

This approach allows us to scale only the traffic that is proven to be profitable, reducing risks and improving predictability at scale.

Conclusion

A performance-driven approach has become essential for scaling In-App campaigns in iGaming. The key to success lies in deep analytics, traffic segmentation, predictive modeling, and strict control within the first 72 hours.

The market has changed — and those who succeed are not the ones who scale volume, but those who scale quality traffic.

At Traffy, this approach is at the core of how we build and scale campaigns, ensuring sustainable growth and measurable performance for our partners.
