Gambless unveils new DHYP awareness campaignReading Time: 3 minutes

 

Gambling harm solution platform Gambless announces today the launch of a new “Don’t Hide Your Pain” (DHYP) awareness campaign against gambling addiction.

The launch of the campaign coincides with the start of the Safer Gambling Week, an initiative brought forward by the Betting and Gaming Council and aimed at promoting safer gambling in the UK and Ireland.

The DHYP campaign will last approx. three months and will cover various aspects of gambling, highlighting the risks involved in such activity.

The campaign aims to prevent gambling harm, conveying its message mainly to younger individuals in Britain and Italy. The two countries, despite being among the first markets to regulate online gambling, share staggering low levels of awareness.

In the UK, it’s estimated that only between 0.6 and 3% of problem gamblers receive treatment. Similar percentages are seen in Italy, where of the 1,300,000 estimated pathological gamblers, only about 12,000 get help each year.

The campaign messages focus on the fact that one does not need to be a problem gambler to suffer gambling harm, thus resonating with a larger audience.

The first batch of promo assets will begin circulating on various social media starting this weekend, putting the spotlight on some of the clear signs of problematic gambling behaviour to look out for, and will be accompanied by the #dhyp hashtag.

Below some comments on the initiative from Gambless CEO, Maurizio Savino:

 

“Why the need of an awareness campaign?

A recent report from the National Gambling Treatment Service confirmed that the awareness on problem gambling in the UK is still very low. It’s estimated that less than 3% of all pathological gamblers receive help. That’s an extremely low figure, even compared to that of alcohol abusers who seek help (15-25%).

Making awareness campaigns about gambling addiction is not easy. It’s a delicate topic and we have seen recently how campaigns can easily face criticisms. However, there is a dire need to do more.

 

“Why borrowing a famous meme’s expression?”

We don’t have the resources of the big charities out there. So, with our small budget, we had to be creative.

Memes are one of the greatest ways of communication of our times. One may dismiss them as silly or shallow – a theory I strongly disagree with. In my opinion memes can be very deep and carry important meanings that one can relate to, stop and think for a couple of seconds. They can raise much more awareness than a distracting storyline.

Memes are also extremely popular among young adults, which are one of the categories at higher risk of gambling harm as well.

 

“What does Gambless do?”

Gambless is a mobile application, the first to provide psychological support to problem gamblers with an innovative and holistic approach on mental health.

Available both on Google Play and App Store, it provides several self-help tools and it offers a number of supportive programs specifically designed by our team of expert psychologists, using various techniques including CBT and Gestalt psychology.

Reception from users has been overwhelming so far. We saw more than 1,000 downloads in just two months since launch, with an upward trend. At current rates we welcome about 1 new gambler each hour through our virtual doors, which are open 24/7.

If these numbers might seem small, one must consider that the UK National Gambling Treatment services help about 9,000 individuals per year, with first appointment waiting times being even over of 104 days for residential treatment. Therefore, such remote services must be taken seriously as an immediate alternative and complementary way of support.

Gambless has the ability to reach many more people in need, with no scalability issues whatsoever. With a bit more awareness and cooperation from the industry, we could really make a difference in the lives of vulnerable individuals.

 

“What’s in store for 2021?”

We want to help as many problem gamblers as possible, so we will continue to raise awareness on the topic, we plan to rollout new languages, and we hope to cooperate with gambling firms and regulators in order to make gambling truly safer.

Push Gaming redefines its portfolio, unveiling new game categories and sub-brand for extended player reach

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming is embarking on a major strategic expansion, introducing two new game categories and a new sub-brand to scale its operations and significantly diversify its game portfolio while maintaining its reputation for high-quality slot experiences. The move aims to attract a wider range of players and secure a substantial market share in key regions.

Known for its premium, quality approach to game design, Push Gaming is broadening its signature style to reach a larger audience while maintaining its commitment to excellence. The new strategy introduces two distinct game categories: Push Originals and Push Actions, which remain within the Push Gaming core brand alongside a new sub-studio, Reel Hot Games.

Push Originals will continue to represent signature Push Gaming titles, targeting slot enthusiasts with complex mechanics and high-volatility gameplay. This category offers thrilling slot experiences, continually pushing boundaries with innovative features and the potential for substantial wins.

Push Actions is an entirely new category aimed at casual players who enjoy fun and easily understandable games. These titles deliver fast-paced, high-energy gameplay with simple mechanics and popular themes. Recent releases, including 3 Magic Pots and 10 Flaming Bisons, have been examples of the provider flexing its creativity with games that are a slight departure from its previous styles, and these and forthcoming games of the same style now officially have a home.

Reel Hot Games is poised to bring its own unique identity to Push Gaming’s portfolio with a classic slots experience. This sub-brand caters to players who appreciate the nostalgia of land-based casino games, featuring iconic symbols and themes enhanced by modern mechanics. It is particularly targeted at markets where classic games are highly popular, such as the regulated US states, Romania, Greece, the Netherlands, Bulgaria and certain Latin American markets.

The successful March 2025 launch of Power Vault in the UK and Brazil was the first unofficial example of a Reel Hot Games release, while the first game to officially launch under this new direction will be Bamboo Ways under the Push Originals category. In addition to all new releases, previous Push Gaming titles will be recategorised accordingly.

George Fil, Director of Product Strategy at Push Gaming, said: “This is a pivotal moment for Push Gaming. Our new direction is a clear commitment to scaling at pace while staying true to the quality that has defined us thus far.

“By diversifying our portfolio with these new categories and sub-brand, we’re not just expanding our offerings, we’re creating ultimate gaming experiences leveraging our heritage in content standards for a broader audience and driving significant growth for our partners in key markets.

“We are laser-focused on pushing boundaries to deliver products that benefit everyone.”
