Block Sportium with Fold’em
- Get Fold’em and finish setup. Setup asks you to turn on site blocking and to check your phone for gambling apps, and you can do either later in the Lock tab.
- Turn on site blocking. If you skipped it in setup, tap the pill on Lock, then Sites, then Set up, and Fold’em walks you through the four taps in Settings. While it is on, the Sites page counts the gambling sites blocked in every browser and app.
- Add the app. Tap the pill on Lock, then Apps, then Add apps, and pick Sportium in Apple’s picker.
What Fold’em covers, layer by layer
One site for Sportium, measured on 1 September 2026 against the list Fold’em hands to Screen Time and the live resolver at dns.foldem.app.

In Safari, and in the app
On 1 September 2026 the web shield’s resolver, dns.foldem.app, answered sportium.es with 0.0.0.0, the address for nowhere, so that page never loads in Safari, in Chrome, in Firefox or inside any other app on this phone. Switch the DNS setting off and every answer for sportium.es is a real address again, so the setting is half of what makes this true.
The list Fold’em hands to Screen Time is ten domains long and no Sportium domain is on it, so that layer adds nothing here. In a browser Sportium is covered by the web shield above, and by nothing else.
Fold’em’s own block screen is a third thing and it is neither of the first two: it lands over the apps you chose, over a website you added in Apple’s picker and over the Games category if you turned Games on, and a Lockdown run you start can close every app except Phone and the ones you keep.
Their own self exclusion tools
Sportium publishes a safer gambling page titled Juego más seguro, under a licence it says is granted by the Spanish regulator and supervised by the Dirección General de Ordenación del Juego. The page is laid out in six numbered parts, one of which is the set of self control tools it offers, and it links straight to the deposit limits screen for the account and to the self exclusion controls inside My Account. It also offers a safer gambling and addiction prevention test as a download, and points readers to juegoresponsable.eu. The detail behind those two links sits inside a signed in account, which could not be reached from here on 2 September 2026.
Fold’em needs no Sportium account. It shuts the app and the site on this iPhone, and it can neither request nor cancel a Sportium exclusion.

What this does not do
Fold’em runs on this iPhone and nowhere else: it does not reach a second phone, a laptop, a shop or cash, and it cannot stop an account being opened. This page says nothing about any Sportium domain it did not measure. The resolver's list is compiled from public gambling lists that change, so 1 September 2026 is the bound on every answer on this page.
