The Story | |||||
German online gambling operator Bet-at-home was slapped with €410k in penalties for allegedly targeting punters without a license obtained from Netherlands’ Kansspelautoreit (KSA) gaming regulatory body. |
|||||
The KSA has been keeping tabs on Bet-at-home since 2012. |
|||||
The Dutch gaming regulatory body punished the Frankfurt-listed Bet-at-home for a number of offenses which include promoting its products in the Dutch language, incorporating the Dutch flag in its marketing and allowing its website to be accessed from Dutch IP addresses. KSA has already discussed these issues with the company in 2012, but a new investigation last October was launched after some ads promoting Bet-at-home appeared in Netherlands. |
