Responsible Gambling; Policy or PR? Protecting Minors from Underage Gambling

iGaming AFRIKA is hosting a webinar on November 6, 2026 titled “Responsible Gambling; Policy or PR? Protecting Minors from Underage Gambling.” Regulators and lawmakers are increasing pressure on operators to strengthen player protection measures, particularly when it comes to preventing underage gambling. With betting platforms becoming more accessible through smartphones and mobile payments, ensuring that minors cannot access gambling products has become a growing concern for both regulators and industry stakeholders.

Across several African markets, regulators are introducing stronger responsible gambling requirements, including age verification measures, advertising restrictions, and responsible gaming campaigns. Yet questions remain about whether these measures are effectively protecting vulnerable groups or primarily serving as compliance checkboxes for operators.

This webinar will examine the realities of responsible gambling enforcement across the continent, with a particular focus on protecting minors from accessing betting platforms. Speakers will explore the effectiveness of age-verification technologies, the responsibilities of operators and regulators, and the role of education and awareness in preventing underage participation.

Attendees will gain insights into practical approaches to responsible gambling, the regulatory expectations operators must meet, and how industry stakeholders can build safer gaming environments while maintaining market growth.
