ASA bans Betway, Kwiff and Sky Bet adverts over under-18 appeal

Regulation

The UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) banned adverts from Betway, Kwiff and Sky Bet, finding that sports-related content had strong appeal to under-18s. The cases involved Chelsea FC branding, Lewis Hamilton and Gary Neville; the ASA said age checks on social platforms could not reliably prevent minors from seeing the adverts, while the operators challenged aspects of the rulings.

The decisions affect operators’ assessment of social media campaigns and sports sponsorship content under UK advertising rules.
