- Summary:
-
One of the most significant changes to the gambling environment in the past 15 years has been the increased availability of interactive - or online - gambling. This paper describes the rise of this new mode of gambling and the risks it poses. It discusses participation in interactive gambling in Australia, the growth of mobile betting, the characteristics of interactive gamblers, consumers' views on the advantages and disadvantages of interactive gambling, concerns related to interactive gambling, and considerations for harm reduction. Although online problem gamblers are similar to 'traditional' problem gamblers, interactive gambling has some unique features that may pose additional risks for harm, particularly for vulnerable populations.
