Over 60,000 Danes Register for ROFUS as Young Male Self-Exclusion Surges

Denmark’s national self-exclusion register for gambling, ROFUS, has now surpassed 60,000 registered users as of 1 May 2025. This marks a dramatic rise in public engagement with responsible gambling measures since the platform’s launch in 2012, when it recorded fewer than 1,500 sign-ups in its first year.

The service, managed by the Danish Gambling Authority, blocks access to all licensed gambling operators in Denmark — online and offline — and has become a central tool in the country’s public health strategy.

Who’s opting out?

The data shows a strong demographic trend:

  • 58% of male registrants are under 40 years old
  • Among users under 20, 96% are male

These figures suggest growing awareness and early action among younger demographics, particularly young men, who dominate new sign-ups.

Flexible self-exclusion options

ROFUS offers several exclusion periods:

  • Short-term: 24 hours to 6 months
  • Permanent: can only be lifted after at least one year and a formal review

This flexibility is seen as a major contributor to the rising adoption rate.

Context: gambling market growth

The spike in ROFUS registrations comes during a time of continued expansion in Denmark’s regulated gambling sector. In April 2025, gross gaming revenue reached DKK 665 million (approx. $103 million), representing 11.6% year-on-year growth.
