Singapore Pools is a legal operator for national lotteries such as Toto and Singapore Sweep lotteries, providing legal gambling opportunities and combatting illegal betting syndicates in Singapore. Furthermore, Singapore Pools promotes responsible gaming as well as devoting a portion of their revenues towards community projects.
Toto and Singapore Sweep are among the most beloved gambling services among Singaporeans, with 92% of gamblers using these services. According to NCPG’s survey, on average gamblers spend $25 monthly betting. But while more money may be being bet, chances of striking it rich remain limited; counsellors believe online bet placement may have contributed to an increase in gambling expenditure.
Singapore Pools’ bets placed during its most recent financial year reached $12.2 billion, setting a new record. This increase represented an 7.1 per cent year-on-year gain, according to an interviewee with The Straits Times. Furthermore, turnover for Singapore Pools is anticipated to climb another 8 per cent during 2017.
Increased participation in sports betting has contributed significantly to an increase in bets; particularly major events. Singapore Pools is the sole legal operator offering sports betting in Singapore and is subject to regulation under the Betting Act which sets out legal framework and requirements that operators such as Singapore Pools must abide by when conducting operations such as this one.
As the only legal operator in Singapore, Singapore Pools remains committed to responsible gambling practices. Working closely with various organizations, Singapore Pools raises awareness of problem gambling while educating employees on warning signs of addiction and contributes to charitable projects like youth development and sport projects as a show of its commitment to its community.
Singapore Pools plays a pivotal role in encouraging responsible gambling as a state-owned entity. Working alongside organizations like Crime Prevention Council to implement anti-illegal gambling programs and encourage employees to play responsibly is just one example of its proactive approach towards responsible gambling issues; Collective Campus’s collaboration also demonstrates its proactive nature; they partnered with them for two one-day tech crash courses for employees on ideation methods, innovation theory and business model creation – an example of its proactive stance against this issue.
