Gambling, betting and gaming: Appeal to children

Note: This advice is given by Caphead for non-ethereal advertising. It is not legal advice and does not mandate CAP, the CAP Advisory Group or the Advertising Standards Control.

The Gambling Act 2005 came into full force on 1 September 2007. All gambling advertising must comply with the Code and the law. Article 16 of the CAP Code states that advertisers must not exploit young or vulnerable people and must not claim that gambling can solve financial or personal problems, is essential, is a rite of initiation or is associated with sexual success. Gambling laws do not apply outside the UK, so if you are advertising gambling products in Northern Ireland or the Normandy Islands, you should consult a professional.

The Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act 2014 came into force on 1 November 2014. This Act contains provisions for the licensing of gambling operators, advertising or externally offering gambling to consumers in the UK. We strongly recommend that marketers seek legal advice if they are unclear about the requirements of the Act.

All ads should be socially responsible

The CAP Code requires that advertising of gambling products be socially responsible and that special attention be paid to protecting children, young people and other vulnerable people from harm or manipulation. In this section, "child" refers to a person who has not reached the age of 16, and "young person" refers to a person who has reached the age of 16 or 17.

Ads should not appeal strongly to under-18s

One of the ways in which the Code protects children and young people is to specify that bookmakers' advertising and gambling must not be attractive to them, especially if they reflect or are associated with youth culture.

From 1 October 2022, Cap Code rule 16. 3. 12 states that advertising must not be attractive to children and young people. This change in rule is stricter than the previous rule and therefore aims to further protect children and young people. Therefore, all decisions that were challenged under the "special appeal to children" framework (including the decisions referenced below) are likely to continue to be challenged under the "strong appeal" framework. For more information, see the Advertising Manual here.

Soccer players in the Premier League and very famous soccer players under the age of 18 seem to be at the highest risk of advertising under the age of 18. ASA had previously investigated advertisements using the Premier League's active soccer players. The advertisement includes a very popular player, such as Philip Coutinho, Jesse Lingard, and Kalidu Kribali, who are very popular with fans of the Premier League, especially the clubs they played. As a result, the ASA ruled that the advertisement was irresponsible and did not comply with the rules (LC International LTD T/A Ladbrokes, 21 Decementer 2022).

ASA was investigating whether advertisements using Geordi Alba and Sergio Bukets, playing in FC Barcelona, ​​attracting young people. But both players have not played in England. The Barcelona Football Club is one of the most supported and successful clubs in the world. Both players were very active in the European Championships and World Cups as the Spanish representative, and also served as their own team. Both players have such a successful career, so the ASA excites children under the age of 18, and as a result, it is likely that ads are not in line with the terms (BV Gaming LTD). V. A Betting Winner, 19 APRIL 2023).

Care needs to be taken with content

Some official surveys show that advertisements appealing to children violate code, even if they are seen in a lo w-potential context.

In 2012, the ASA supported a complaint about newspaper advertisements, despite being published in the economic column of printed materials that children could read. In fact, the ASA has a view that it does not comply with norms despite the fact that it is more likely to be more attractive for children and young people to include famous Cartoon characters (Optimas Prime) in ads.

Use of licensed characters and celebrities must be responsible
