Australian wagering operator Dabble Sports has paid AU$1.07 million ($763,000) in penalties after breaching online gambling self-exclusion rules, according to the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA).
The regulator found Dabble failed to close 157 wagering accounts after their holders registered with BetStop, Australia’s national self-exclusion register. It also sent 839 electronic messages to 165 self-excluded people.
Separately, the company sent more than 2,000 app push notifications to 45 customers without the required BetStop information.
Wagering providers must close registered users’ accounts as soon as practicable and stop sending them electronic marketing.
Dabble has accepted a two-year court-enforceable undertaking requiring an independent review of its compliance systems and investment in recommended improvements.
