The Spanish gaming regulator (DGOJ), in collaboration with the Public Treasury and the Executive Service of the Commission for the Prevention of Money Laundering and Monetary Offences (Sepblac), has held the first Sectoral Conference on the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing with online gaming operators.

The meeting, which took place at the headquarters of the DGOJ on February 6, brought together representatives of authorised online gaming operators and regulatory and supervisory bodies to address current challenges in the prevention of money laundering, related to the area of regulatory compliance and the main risks of the activity.

The meeting was inaugurated by Mr. Mikel Arana, Director General of Gaming Regulation, together with Ms. Irene Sánchez Pérez, advisory member of the Public Treasury.

Arana then moderated the various presentations in which leading experts from Sepblac, the Financial Intelligence Unit and the Supervisory Authority for the Prevention of Money Laundering and the Public Treasury analysed the latest regulatory developments and sanctions at European and international level, presented the main findings in inspections of operators and spoke about the role of financial intelligence in the prevention and detection of risky operations, among other topics.

This was followed by a round table discussion, attended by experts such as Alberto Navarro, deputy assistant director of inspection at the DGOJ, and representatives of Sepblac and the Public Treasury, where the questions and doubts raised by online gaming operators were resolved.

Dutch Regulator KSA Warns Operators Over “Early Payout” Feature

Published

The Dutch Gambling Regulator (KSA) has contacted several online sports betting providers regarding incomplete information about the “early payout” feature. The “early payout” feature allows a bet to be considered won before the match has officially ended. This feature is not available in the event of a draw. The KSA found that several providers failed to communicate this sufficiently, making it appear as if players could also use this option for draws.

Early payout

The Early Payout feature allows players to declare their bet a winner if their team has a two-goal lead during the match, regardless of the final result. The odds for Early Payout bets are lower than those for regular bets. The problem arises when this option appears to be offered for draw bets, as there is no team with a lead.

Unclear information leads to confusion

Providers also promote lower odds for draws under the “early payout” feature. The providers’ terms and conditions then state that early payouts are not possible for draws, but this isn’t always clearly communicated when placing the bet. This creates confusion among players, who may assume that early payouts also apply to draws.

Obligation to provide clear information

Providers are required to provide clear and understandable information about the possible outcomes of a bet, including the associated terms and conditions. The KSA determined that providers were not complying with this obligation when providing information about the “early payout” feature. Providers that offer this feature have been contacted and have improved their communication so that players are now more clearly informed about the limitations of early payout for bets on draws.
