Dabble Sports Pty Ltd has paid $1,069,200 in penalties after an Australian Communications and Media Authority investigation found the online wagering provider breached gambling self-exclusion rules. The company has also accepted a two-year, court-enforceable undertaking to improve its compliance systems. The investigation found Dabble failed to close 157 wagering accounts after their holders registered with BetStop, Australia’s National Self-Exclusion Register. The company also sent 165 self-excluded people 839 electronic messages, including SMS messages, emails and app push notifications. In addition, Dabble sent more than 2,000 push notifications to 45 customers without providing required information about BetStop. Under the rules, wagering providers must close the accounts of registered individuals as soon as practicable and stop sending them electronic marketing. ACMA member Carolyn Lidgerwood said the breaches were serious and had the potential to cause harm. Under the undertaking, Dabble must arrange an independent review of its compliance systems and invest in recommended improvements. New laws taking effect on Jan. 1, 2027, will further strengthen BetStop and substantially increase penalties for breaches.
