Flutter has two programmes – Flutter Tech4Good Award and Flutter & RGC: Play Well Challenge – which support the company’s overall Positive Impact Plan of achieving global sustainability targets in responsible gambling and wider goals by 2030.

In partnership with the Responsible Gambling Council, based in Canada, the Play Well Challenge aims to use insights from systems, technologies and research to create a safer gambling environment for players.
Flutter Entertainment’s Positive Impact Plan global sustainability goals include:
- Having a positive impact on communities and improving the lives of 10 million people by the end of 2030 through sport, play and colleagues’ skills.
- Helping customers to Play Well by having 75% of active online customers using responsible gambling tools by 2030 and over 50% by 2026.
“The Flutter Tech4Good Award and Play Well Challenge align our expertise in technology with the ambitious targets set out within our Positive Impact Plan. As part of this, we want to utilise our global scale and in-house talent to support the innovative startups that are developing technology that enhances consumer protection and drives positive change in the communities in which we operate,” Conor Lynch, Chief Information Officer at Flutter Entertainment, said.
“RGC is proud to collaborate with Flutter on this important programme to minimise harms related to gambling. The Flutter & RGC Play Well Challenge has the ability to drive real change in responsible gambling, globally, and ultimately create a safer gambling experience for millions of people,” Shelley White, CEO of RGC, said.
