Responsible Gaming: Sustained Risk Reduction
Tipico's performance in responsible gaming shows figures that consolidate a proactive approach. In 2025, the percentage of income associated with players considered at risk — users who later self-excluded or were excluded — fell to 1.26%, below the internal threshold of 1.5%. This data is attributed to the integration of measures based on scientific criteria, including:
- Early detection algorithms for problematic patterns
- Targeted review of atypical gaming behaviors
- Self-regulation tools and limit controls for users
Tipico operates solely in regulated jurisdictions, ensuring that 100% of revenue comes from environments with strict standards, often exceeding legal minimums. If the system detects risks, the company implements personalized protection measures for the player.

Environmental Commitment and Climate Neutrality Goal for 2030
Tipico reinforced in 2025 its transition towards climate neutrality set for 2030. Among the milestones is the complete switch to renewable energy in its German locations, improvements in energy efficiency, and advancements in the electrification of the vehicle fleet. A substantial progress is the increase in facilities certified under ISO 14001:2015, rising from 32% in 2024 to 88% in 2025, reflecting the expansion of the environmental management system in the group.
Early Implementation of ESRS Standards
The 2025 sustainability report adopts the requirements of the ESRS before their legal enforcement, a strategy that positions Tipico at the forefront of regulatory adaptation in the sector. The document — available on the corporate platform — provides a detailed overview of progress in ESG policies.
"Responsible growth in gambling is only viable through decisive player protection," states Tipico's report.
The company declares its continued operations in regulated markets, where responsible gaming standards frequently exceed the legal requirements in each country.
Sector Perspectives and Next Steps
The presentation of the 2030 strategy, along with the detailed sustainability report, reaffirms the group's commitment to transparency and the integration of social and ecological criteria in business management. These initiatives strengthen Tipico's position with operators and regulators in the iGaming sector interested in effective control and accountability mechanisms.
