Verification of Exclusion Status

From 1 May 2018, all jackpot machine rooms operated by private clubs in Singapore are required to verify their members’ status of exclusion from such rooms with the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) every time they enter the rooms (including re-entry). Those who are in the exclusion list will be denied entry. The verification will be conducted by staff at Jackpot Room Registration Counter.

To facilitate the verification process, members will be asked to provide us with one-time written consents for NCPG to release their exclusion information to the Club. Those who refuse to provide the consent will be denied entry to Jackpot Room.

We will extract barcodes representing members’ NRIC Numbers, or Passport Numbers or FINs and print onto their Jackpot Cards so that they can use the latter for the verification.

We require members’ NRICs, or passports or work passes and Jackpot Cards to process the consent and print the barcodes.

The verification of status of exclusion does not replace registration of entry to Jackpot Room. Members entering Jackpot Room are still required to register via signing-in at every single entry and signing-out whenever they exit the Room.

We ask for members’ understanding and compliance to the above.
