The Verdict

Why Choose Checkpoint

  • Complete recovery ecosystem (not just blocking)
  • Modern, user-friendly mobile app
  • Community of 10,000+ people in recovery
  • Panic button for crisis moments
  • Proven 93% success rate
  • Addresses why you gamble, not just how

GamBlock Limitations

  • Blocking-only (no recovery features)
  • Complex setup process
  • Dated user interface
  • No mobile app experience
  • No community or motivation tools
  • Doesn't address underlying addiction

GamBlock has the strongest blocking technology, but blocking alone doesn't address why you gamble. Research shows that 70% of people using blockers alone relapse because they never addressed the addiction. Checkpoint combines solid blocking with recovery support, giving you a complete solution for lasting change.
