UKGC Publishes 2024 Young People and Gambling Report

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) has published its 2024 Young People and Gambling Report – its annual study into children’s and young people’s exposure to, and involvement in, all types of gambling.

The research was conducted in schools, with pupils completing online self-completion surveys in class. The study collected data from a sample of 3869 11 to 17 year olds between January and June 2024.

Headline statistics include:

• 27% of young people spent their own money on gambling in the 12 months prior to taking part in the survey

• the most common types of gambling activity that young people spent their own money on were legal or did not feature age restricted products, namely:

  1. arcade gaming machines such as penny pushers or claw grab machines (20%)
  2. placing a bet for money between friends or family (11%)
  3. playing cards with friends or family for money (5%)

• 21% of young people were spending their own money on regulated forms of gambling (which includes some activities that are legal and played within licensed premises), and 15% on unregulated forms of gambling (gambling activities which fall outside the remit of the Gambling Commission)

• the proportion of young people scoring 4 or more on the DSM-IV-MR-J, representing a young person experiencing problem gambling, has seen a statistically significant increase from 0.7% in 2023 to 1.5% in 2024.

Protecting children from gambling harm is a priority for the Commission and in August it further strengthened its protections to prevent children from accessing products illegally.

From 30 August all licensees should have procedures that require their staff to check the age of any customer who appears to be under 25 years of age, rather than under 21 years of age, and all gambling land-based licensees, including smaller licensees, must carry out age verification test purchasing.

Tim Miller, Commission Executive Director for research and policy, said: “Today’s report gives us important insights into the relationship between young people and gambling.

“Where it relates to regulated forms of gambling we use the data to continuously keep under review and, where needed, strengthen the suite of protections for young people that we require gambling companies to have in place.

“However, the report also shows that young people often gamble in ways that do not require regulation, such as betting with their friends. Yet these forms of gambling can also lead to some experiencing harm. Our report points to the opportunities that parents, schools and other groups have to also help reduce gambling harm among children and young people.”

GR8 Tech will see a leadership transition on January 1, 2025, as Oleksandr Feshchenko, currently the Deputy CEO and CRO, will take over as the new CEO. Sergey Ghazaryan, formerly the Head of the Casino Business Unit, takes over as the CRO from December 1 of the current year. In the meantime, Evgen Belousov will be stepping away from GR8 Tech.

During his two-year tenure, Evgen Belousov has established GR8 Tech as a trusted provider of high-performance iGaming solutions. Over the past year alone, GR8 Tech achieved remarkable growth, expanding its client base eightfold and significantly increasing revenue.

GR8 Tech’s solutions support over 25 newly launched clients and nearly 50 live operator brands. The company’s continued success stems from its unique strategy of providing tailored, geo-specific solutions that directly address market demands. Unlike other platforms that offer one-size-fits-all approaches, GR8 Tech focuses on customizing its features specifically to meet the needs of each region and client.

Reflecting on his time as CEO, Belousov shared: “Leading GR8 Tech has been nothing short of transformative. We’ve redefined what success looks like in our industry, achieving remarkable milestones in only two years’ time. We’ve laid down a strong foundation, and now, it’s time for a bold new chapter. With our high-performance platform and a vision to dominate as the world’s #1 sportsbook-driven solution, I’m confident the new leadership will amplify this momentum and take GR8 Tech to unprecedented heights.” As Belousov shifts to being an independent iGaming advisor, he plans to focus on the strategic development of B2B iGaming projects.

The leadership transition aligns with the company’s two-year anniversary in January 2025 – a milestone GR8 Tech plans to celebrate with exciting future announcements.
