The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement(DGE) has slapped a fresh penalty on Super Group subsidiary Digital Gaming Corporation(DGC) in the Garden State. The penalty has to do with specific responsible gambling and player protection shortcomings discovered as part of a DGE investigation.

According to the regulator, which outlined the penalty earlier this month, between March 2024 and January 2025, DGC has failed to live up to its RG commitments, including a failure to add a self-excluded player on a list of prohibited players.

The player was able to place wagers with both gaming and sports betting products. Another instance had to do with the Self-Exclusion List itself, and the process the company utilized to ensure that players who were admitted to play were not on the said list.

The breaches occurred between July 18, 2024, and August 7, b. Once again, self-excluded patrons were allowed to open accounts and place wagers, in what the DGE described as another lapse of upholding regulatory norms. 

The DGC has agreed to settle the matter and pay $112,188.96as well as reimburse players for a total of $5,278.73, the amount that the company won from them. The DGE has found the matter resolved with the acknowledgment of fault and the agreement to recompense players as well as pay the civil penalty.

While the DGE did not pursue any further action against DGC, the watchdog did caution that future violations could lead to potentially stiffer penalties directed at the company.  The settlement is still fairly small, which could be attributed to the total amount lost by the self-excluded players despite the extended period they were able to gamble without notice.
