Zona de Azar Netherlands – Netherlands Gambling Regulator Fines Bingoal For Marketing Breach

Netherlands.- June 06, 2023 www.zonadeazar.com The Dutch Gaming Authority (Ksa) has awarded gambling provider Bingoal Nederland B.V. a fine of 400,000 euros. Bingoal was fined because it has advertisements aimed at young adults (18-24 years). That is prohibited.

The Ksa started an investigation following a broadcast of the TV program Kassa, which showed that between October 2021 and March 2022, Bingoal sent advertising messages to users aged 18 to 24. That is not allowed, because young adults are a vulnerable target group.The brains of young people are still developing. As a result, they are extra susceptible to a gambling addiction. This fine follows four previously handed out fines in the context of the same investigation. The Ksa has fined a total of five providers of games of chance for advertising aimed at young people. With this fine, the investigation has been completed.
