Gamban was co-founded by Jack Symons, who drew on his own experience of gambling harm to create a practical tool to help others facing similar challenges.
Gamban’s software blocks access to online gambling sites and apps, helping people make their devices “casino free” without disrupting the rest of their digital lives. Users can still access everyday messaging and social media apps, but the route back to gambling is blocked. For many, that simple barrier becomes an important part of their recovery.
Today, Gamban has supported more than 55,000 people worldwide, and its mission is clear: to help people regain control by reducing access to gambling in the moments when willpower alone may not be enough.
As the business has grown, Jack has also recognised the value of getting the right legal support in place early. For businesses like Gamban, there is always a balance between managing risk and protecting cash flow, but strong legal foundations can help prevent issues from becoming more complex, costly and time-consuming later on.
Gamban first turned to Harper James when a legal matter arose, and the likely time and cost involved were unclear. Since then, the quality and breadth of legal expertise plus the pricing predictability of Harper James’ model have been of great value as the business has grown. Jack says being able to budget for legal support and draw on a bank of hours gives Gamban the confidence to deal with important legal work proactively.
With trusted legal support behind the scenes, Gamban can stay focused on what matters most: helping people create gambling-free digital spaces and take meaningful steps towards recovery.
