The betting shop challenge
Betting shops serve a steady flow of customers, often with one or two staff on duty. Through MOSES, a shop may hold photographs of many excluded customers — and the busiest times are exactly when spotting them is hardest.
Major tournaments bring peak footfall. The Betting and Gaming Council↗ lists self-exclusion schemes and mandatory age checks among the protections of the regulated market, and ahead of the 2026 World Cup GamCare told the BBC↗ that its helpline saw an 11% increase in contacts after the 2022 tournament.
