The purpose of this review was to evaluate the evidence on the effectiveness of gambling harm-minimization tools. Another aim was to identify gaps in current knowledge and areas for future research. The review emphasizes the importance of understanding how consumer protection tools work to develop more effective strategies to prevent and minimize gambling harm. The low uptake of these tools highlights a need to rethink how they should be communicated and marketed. It is important to ensure that these tools are seen as beneficial to all people who gamble, and not just for those who are already experiencing harm.
