Getting help in Indiana

If you’re ready for a life after betting, here’s a simple path in IN. Official details are below.

1. Step 1: Block access

   • BetBlocker (free) or Gamban
   • Ask someone you trust to hold the admin PIN
   • Mute or remove sportsbook apps and notifications

2. Step 2: Self-exclude

   What’s legal here: Online and retail sports betting legal. Commercial casinos and lottery available.

   • Voluntary Exclusion Program (casinos) + Internet Self-Restriction Program (mobile sports) · Indiana Gaming Commission (IGC)
   • Open the official page / enrollment path
   • How to enroll: Casino floors: enroll in the VEP online, at a casino, or at IGC Indianapolis (1 year, 5 years, or lifetime). Mobile sports wagering: also enroll in the Internet Self-Restriction Program (ISRP) at in.gov/igc/internet-self-restriction-program/. Many people need both.
   • Terms: VEP: 1 year, 5 years, or lifetime. ISRP: choose the term on the ISRP form; removal is a separate request after the term.
   • Coverage: VEP = Indiana casinos. ISRP = licensed mobile sports wagering only.

   Verified 200: in.gov/igc/voluntary-exclusion-program/ and internet-self-restriction-program/ (Oct 2026).

   Before you enroll: withdraw balances you can, save records you might need, cancel recurring deposits. Many terms can’t be shortened. If this state has no statewide list, use blockers, helplines, GA, and operator tools anyway.

3. Step 3: Protect your money

   • Withdraw remaining balances where possible
   • Cancel autopay and remove saved payment methods
   • Download win/loss or tax records you may need later
