Gamban Device-Blocking Software
Multi ProductFirst PartyAvailability: Standalone and BundledGamban develops device-installed software that blocks access to gambling websites and applications. Consumers can obtain the software directly, while operators, banks, regulators, treatment services, and other partners can fund or distribute access through partner programs.
Device blocking is distinct from self-exclusion. Gamban changes access from covered devices; it does not close a gambling account, add a person to an operator or regulator exclusion list, block payment transactions, evaluate affordability, monitor operator gameplay, or run a compliance case.
Device blocking reduces access rather than guaranteeing complete coverage. Coverage varies by device, operating system, website, app, and product version.
Products
Integration: A user installs Gamban on each supported device. A business partner can purchase or distribute access and direct users to installation. Gamban does not provide a universal operator API or account-level enforcement link. Device support, partner data roles, market terms, pricing, and distribution conditions are deployment-specific.

Procurement record
Current product boundaries and the terms that still have to be fixed in the signed order or service agreement.
Known is usable now. Contract specific changes by order or market. Not disclosed has no usable standard term. Unknown remains unresolved. Outside provider scope is handled by the operator or another supplier.
Contract and supplier
- Consumer licensor and partner agreementKnown
- Gamban Ltd owns and operates the software and is the consumer license counterparty. A business distribution order must separately allocate purchased licenses, portal access, user eligibility, partner support, invoicing, and partner-specific duties.
- Device blocking versus self-exclusionKnown
- Gamban restricts access to maintained gambling websites and applications on installed supported devices. It does not create an operator self-exclusion record, close accounts, block payments, enforce venue exclusion, provide treatment, or replace the operator's responsible-gambling process.
- Consumer device allowanceKnown
- The consumer license permits use on up to 15 personal devices. A partner order must define whether access is assigned per person, household, code, device, or subscription and how replacements and additional devices are handled.
Implementation
- Per-device installation and distributionKnown
- A user installs Gamban on each supported device. Partners can fund or distribute access through a portal and training; there is no established universal operator API or account-level enforcement connection.
Operating responsibilities
- Partner and Gamban data rolesContract specific
- Gamban Ltd controls its direct service data, while partner-specific collection, referral, license assignment, support, reporting, and data sharing depend on the distribution arrangement. The agreement must allocate notice, lawful basis, retention, and rights handling.
- Operator account and player-support actionsKnown
- The operator or support organization remains responsible for account self-exclusion, payment blocks, limits, customer interaction, treatment referral, crisis procedures, safeguarding records, and any response when device blocking fails.
Operations and service
- Required-device coverage testingContract specific
- Coverage depends on device, operating system, website, application, blocklist maintenance, updates, and bypass methods. Acceptance must test every required environment and define update cadence, incident route, reinstallation, and uncovered-site handling.
- Blocking effectiveness boundaryKnown
- No blocking product covers every gambling destination or bypass route. Procurement should measure blocked and missed targets for the current product version and required devices without treating category-level research as a Gamban performance result.
- Partner support and incident commitmentsNot disclosed
- Partner support hours, response targets, critical-blocking incident handling, service recovery, update failures, portal availability, security evidence, and breach-notice commitments are not established.
Commercial terms
- Partner license and distribution pricingNot disclosed
- Partner setup, license volume, eligible users, renewal, unused codes, portal, training, support, territory, minimum, overage, and consumer-to-partner conversion charges are not established.
Market and approval scope
- Territory, device, and app availabilityContract specific
- Territory availability, supported operating systems, app-store access, local-language support, blocking categories, partner eligibility, and regulatory treatment must be confirmed for the intended user population.
Exit and portability
- License end and user continuityContract specific
- Consumer license termination is governed by the EULA, while partner exit terms are undisclosed. The partner agreement must define active-user continuity, code validity, renewals, portal export, support handoff, data retention, and deletion.
Strengths
- + The product blocks access at device level, including services outside a participating operator's own account controls.
- + The current offer supports direct consumer licensing and organization-funded distribution.
What to verify in procurement
- ! Blocking coverage is not universal and can change as sites, applications, devices, and bypass methods change.
- ! Device blocking does not create a self-exclusion record, close accounts, block payments, provide treatment, or satisfy an operator's full responsible-gambling process.
- ! Coverage must be tested across the required devices, operating systems, websites, and applications.
- ! Partner data roles, supported-device details, territory availability, price, and commercial terms remain deployment-specific.
