Online gamblers spending £1,000 a day to face new UK checks

  • Gamblers spending more than £1,000 in 24 hours could face financial risk assessments.
  • Regulator says the checks are not affordability tests and will not affect credit scores.
  • Betting industry warns the changes could push customers towards illegal gambling sites.

Online gambling customers in the UK who spend large sums in a short period could soon face financial risk assessments, under new rules announced by the Gambling Commission. The regulator says the changes are aimed at identifying customers who may be experiencing financial hardship, while the betting industry argues they could drive gamblers towards unregulated operators.

Under the new framework, customers spending more than £1,000 within a 24-hour period or £3,000 over a rolling 90-day period will be eligible for enhanced financial risk assessments. Lower thresholds will apply to gamblers aged under 25, with checks beginning at £750 in 24 hours once the system is fully introduced.
