US.- DraftKings has launched the Practice Safe Bets campaign, a new responsible gambling initiative to support the American Gaming Association’s (AGA) Responsible Gaming Education Month (RGEM) taking place this September.
The goal of AGA’s initiative is to educate consumers on responsible sports betting, increase awareness of problem gambling, promote gaming literacy and elevate employee training.
DraftKings’ campaign features ex-professional skater Tony Hawk and professional wrestler The Miz, and is inspired by the classic ‘The More You Know” public service announcements of the 90s. The commercial focuses on the importance of responsible gaming, including setting limits by using the responsible gaming tools.
During September, DraftKings will offer a free-to-play pool, allowing players to learn about responsible gambling by checking answers against DraftKings’ online Safer Play Portal.
 
DraftKings has launched the Practice Safe Bets campaign, a responsible gambling initiative in support of the American Gaming Association's (AGA) Responsible Gaming Education Month (RGEM) in September. The campaign aims to promote responsible sports betting, increase awareness of problem gambling, and elevate employee training.

To achieve their goal, DraftKings has partnered with ex-professional skater Tony Hawk and professional wrestler The Miz. Their commercial is inspired by the "The More You Know” public service announcements of the 90s and focuses on the importance of responsible gaming. The commercial will emphasize the use of responsible gaming tools such as setting limits.

DraftKings will also offer a free-to-play pool in September that will allow players to learn more about responsible gambling by checking their answers against DraftKings’ online Safer Play Portal. The company's Safer Play initiative provides resources such as self-exclusion tools, deposit limits, and time limits to promote responsible gambling.

It’s encouraging to see an industry giant like DraftKings prioritizing responsible gambling and dedicating resources to educating consumers about the importance of gambling in a safe and responsible manner. With the rise of online sports betting, it’s essential for companies to prioritize responsible gambling, and DraftKings’ efforts show a step in the right direction.
 
It is good as most popular gambling platforms are promoting responsible gaming initiative. Other platforms should follow and copy sites like Draft kings and MGM in the same suit. The agenda of this initiative is enlighten the gamblers about the imperative of responsible gambling.
