Business News

GeoComply has made a $200,000 donation to Conscious Gaming to help fund the non-profit as it continues to build scale to tackle the responsible gaming challenges faced by the iGaming industry in the U.S. through the accelerated deployment of PlayPause, a first-of-its-kind national self-exclusion tool.

“We have been very fortunate at GeoComply to have a front seat to the growth of the iGaming industry across the United States over the past decade,” said GeoComply Chairman and Co-Founder Anna Sainsbury. “We recognize with this growth comes challenges, and GeoComply is proud to commit funding to Conscious Gaming to help the industry fulfill its obligations to responsible gaming by creating a safe environment for players.”

GeoComply has set up Conscious Gaming as an independent nonprofit to align all industry stakeholders’ responsible gaming needs and create a standardized baseline to share nationally. Conscious Gaming endeavors to unite the industry in order to solve the challenges created by the patchwork of state-by-state requirements in the United States.

With the initial $200,000 donation, Conscious Gaming will ramp up the development, industry outreach and deployment efforts around PlayPause. PlayPause is an innovative tool created to modernize and strengthen the industry’s responsible gaming programs.

“The interest and momentum for PlayPause from operators and regulators since the launch has been tremendous,” said Seth Palansky, Vice President of Corporate Social Responsibility & Communications at Conscious Gaming. “This donation from GeoComply will help us scale our efforts and help drive the adoption of PlayPause throughout the U.S. iGaming industry in 2021.”
