Online lottery platform Lotto.com participates in National Council on Problem Gambling's Problem Gambling Awareness Month campaign
Modernizing Gameplay: Lotto.com's Commitment to Responsible Gambling
Lotto.com, stepping into the limelight this March, unveils its partnership with the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) for the Problem Gambling Awareness Month (PGAM) campaign. This collaboration aims to shed light on gambling-related harm and promote a safer gaming environment.
A Game-Changing Alliance
Lotto.com and NCPG rally together to emphasize the importance of responsible gambling practices throughout the year. The partnership echoes Lotto.com's resolve to empower players with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the lottery landscape responsibly.
Past achievements beckon recognition – in 2021, Lotto.com earned the Internet Compliance Assessment Program (iCAP) accreditation from the NCPG. This accreditation underscores Lotto.com's commitment to upholding the best practices for responsible gambling and player protection.
PGAM's Core Message: Dispelling Stigma and Promoting Awareness
The core message of PGAM this year is "Seeking Understanding," symbolizing a stride towards eradicating the stigma around gambling addiction – a complex and misunderstood mental health issue. Lotto.com pledges to be an active force in this mission, striving to make gambling a safer, more responsible experience for all players.
A Vision Beyond March: Empowerment and Support
Spearheading this mission, Lotto.com CEO Thomas Metzger rounds up his team's commitment:
"We aim to empower individuals at every level of our organization with the knowledge, training, and tools they need to navigate the lottery landscape responsibly. Through this, we foster security, build trust, and continue contributing to a positive lottery experience."
Riding the wave of empathy, PGAM promises support not just for those struggling with gambling-related problems but for their families as well, who often bear the brunt of the issue.

On another note, responsible gaming principles and player protection are non-negotiable priorities for operators like Lotto.com. The industry consistently updates approaches that minimize the risk of compulsive gambling and fraud. Key strategies include responsible gaming as a core value, the implementation of technology to personalize interventions, and adherence to strict player protection accreditations, such as iCAP.
The National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG), working alongside Lotto.com, advocates for prevention, education, and collaboration between industry stakeholders, healthcare professionals, and regulators. NCPG also champions the development and dissemination of resources for individuals and families grappling with problem gambling.
In essence, these initiatives reflect a commitment to prevention, education, collaboration, and the responsible integration of technology to promote a safer, more sustainable gaming environment.
