How does ROFUS work?

What is covered by ROFUS?

If you are registered in ROFUS, you exclude yourself from online gambling and all land-based casinos in Denmark. In this context, online gambling is betting and online casino gambling as e.g. poker, roulette, and gambling on gaming machines. From 1 October 2023, the exclusion also covers in-person betting at physical retailers in Denmark. Registrations made before 1 October 2023 will not change.

Self-exclusion – for how long?

  • 24 hours
  • 1, 3, or 6 months
  • Permanent exclusion

You have the opportunity to take a 24-hour break from gambling or a temporary break of 1, 3, or 6 months. You also have the opportunity to self-exclude permanently. Temporary exclusions are automatically removed when the period expires on the exact time. If you have chosen to self-exclude permanently, you can request the Danish Gambling Authority to have your registration removed one year after your registration at the earliest. To have your registration in ROFUS removed, you must log into ww.rofus.nu usng your MitID. The request must be confirmed by logging into www.rofus.nu no earlier than seven days and no later than 30 days after the request was made.

Personal and confidential

A registration in ROFUS is personal which is why you can only register yourself. 

The Danish Gambling Authority handles your information confidentially. Only the gambling operators at which you have an account can see your registration in ROFUS. However, the gambling operators can only see your registration if you attempt to log into or create an account during your self-exclusion period. 

Marketing 

When you register with ROFUS, you also sign up to the “No thank you to marketing” arrangement. This way, you avoid receiving gambling advertising from online gambling operators with a licence to provide gambling in Denmark while you are registered with ROFUS.

The gambling operator can see that you are registered with ROFUS when they send out advertising.

By gambling advertising is meant any type of commercial contact via phone numbers, email addresses, postal addresses, or other information, that the gambling operator has on you. 

The above does not cover unaddressed mail and internet advertisements.
