The trio pledged to begin revealing responsible gambling activities in autumn of 2022. Kindred, Svenska Spel and ATG submit data to Swedish regulator Spelinspektionen every six months.
The latest data set covers the six months to 31 December 2023 and is the third update to have been published, following H2 of 2022 and H1 for last year.
Data covers the percentage of players contacted due to risky gambling; effect of contacting players; how many reduced problem gambling habits; and the percentage of players who stopped gambling.
