What is a layered self-exclusion? A multi-layered self-exclusion approach holds significance in protecting vulnerable individuals from the gambling-related harm. With the approach, individuals not only utilise self-exclusion programmes but also integrate additional layers of protection. This may involve employing content filtering software, such as Gamban, to block access to online gambling sites on their devices. Furthermore, seeking assistance from gambling addiction counsellors and engaging with support groups creates a robust support system to reinforce the self-exclusion commitment, and, if applicable, blocking gambling transactions through their bank.
