A Global Recognition for a Collective Commitment

RG Check certification is an international audit that evaluates gambling operators’ commitment to responsible gaming. It covers more than 200 criteria, notably including prevention strategy, training, governance, and responsible communication.

Recognized for its high level of requirements, RG Check currently assesses nearly 170 gambling operators around the world.

With a score of 89.44/100, Betclic Group achieved the third-best global performance and became the first French operator to receive the label.
Betclic stands out in several key areas:

• 96/100 for “Responsible Gaming Policy, Strategy, and Culture”, demonstrating a coherent approach fully integrated into the company’s strategy.
• 93/100 for “Employee Training”, highlighting continuous training for teams on best practices for player protection.
• 97/100 for “Marketing Communications”, ensuring ethical practices and the protection of vulnerable audiences.
• 90/100 for “Account and Payment Management”, confirming reliable and secure procedures.

According to Sarah McCarthy, CEO of the RG Council, the certifying body: “Betclic’s successful RG Check accreditation demonstrates their dedication to player protection and responsible gambling practices. This achievement shows what’s possible when operators prioritize evidence-based safeguards and commit to meeting rigorous standards. We’re proud to recognize their efforts in advancing safer gambling on betclic.fr and setting a strong example for the industry”.

Betclic Protect: A Pioneering and Differentiating Program
The certification, valid for three years, rewards a collective commitment to making online gaming a safe and responsible experience, based on human support, technology, and transparency.

This result stems from significant human and financial investments, embodied in “Betclic Protect”, a pioneering player-protection program that includes:

• Raising awareness among all players through broad public campaigns.
• Providing moderation tools enabling players to stay in control.
• Detecting risky behaviors using a model combining 60 behavorial indicators.
• Supporting players in difficulty through personalized assistance.

More than 100 specialists at Betclic are dedicated exclusively to responsible gaming.

Betclic Group’s management also requires 100% of employees to be trained annually on responsible gaming specifics, demonstrating the company’s full commitment to this issue.

For Nicolas Béraud, founder and CEO of Betclic Group: “Becoming the first French operator certified by RG Check is a collective source of pride. It crowns years of investment in player protection and confirms that responsibility and innovation can strengthen one another. This certification also highlights that our “Betclic Protect” program is among the most robust in the world, enabling us to offer a safer gaming experience to our 5 million customers.”
This certification comes as Betclic launches its annual “Responsible Gaming Week” from 17 to 20 November 2025, during which employees across Betclic Group’s five offices (France, Poland, Portugal, Ivory Coast, Malta) will be trained on prevention and awareness topics through workshops and conferences.
