Swedish Regulator Imposes Fine of SEK12M on Videoslots
The Swedish gambling regulator, Spelinspektionen, has fined Videoslots SEK12m (£937,016) for failing to help customers better manage their gambling behaviour when it had reason to do so.
The regulator said that the company did not take sufficiently effective measures to intervene on excessive gaming and “did not act promptly enough.”
The fine, along with a formal warning, comes after a Spelinspektionen investigation into Videoslots’ customer activity in spring last year. The regulator found that the company breached its duty of care obligations.
Twelve customers’ gaming behaviour was analysed, with the regulator concluding that their gambling patterns, deposit behaviours and “significant losses” were among the “multiple indicators” that the customers engaged in excessive gaming.
A number of the 12 customers returned to Videoslots’ platform to play “multiple times” during the day or play “continuously for many hours.”
The regulator said all of the customers had “very high deposit limits.” Three had limits of SEK1m (£78,164), one had a limit of SEK4.5m (£351,912) and another player’s limit was SEK300m (£23.5m).
All customers deposited “large amounts” during the review period, Spelinspektionen said, including one who deposited SEK1.8m (£140,785) and another who deposited SEK1.3m (£101,721).
“Several customers exhibited a deposit pattern where withdrawn amounts were deposited again shortly after being withdrawn,” the regulator said.
“For several customers, there were also a large number of deposits in a short period. Some customers regularly made multiple deposits per gambling day… and one customer had days with up to 28 deposits.”
“In light of the above, Spelinspektionen assesses that all the customers have engaged in excessive gambling during the review period,” the regulator concluded.
“The company has pointed out that individual indicators, on their own, may not necessarily be signs of excessive gambling. According to Spelinspektionen, all the above-mentioned indicators are signs of excessive gambling, and the overall assessment of all indicators forms the basis for the conclusion.”

Global Gaming Solutions has welcomed a statement from the Isle of Man Government reaffirming its commitment to the iGaming sector. It comes after a year that tested confidence across parts of the industry.
The Isle of Man Government highlighted its strong iGaming history in a statement released today by the Department for Enterprise. The Island’s reputation comes from robust regulation, political and economic stability, and close working between Government, regulators and industry. The statement reaffirmed that iGaming remains a core and enduring part of the Isle of Man’s economy, now and into the future.
The Chief Minister said the Government has strengthened its understanding of risk in response to a more complex global environment. He added that additional resources and frameworks are now in place to respond to emerging threats. The statement confirmed that ICE 2026 in Barcelona is the starting point for a coordinated programme of engagement. Digital Isle of Man and other agencies will continue to make the case for the Island as a secure and trusted home for well-regulated iGaming.
Responding to the announcement, Global Gaming Solutions said the statement provides important reassurance for existing licence holders and prospective businesses operating in the sector.
Mark O’Neill, Managing Director of Global Gaming Solutions, said:
“The Isle of Man Government’s reaffirmation of its commitment to the iGaming sector provides important clarity and reassurance for existing licence holders and the wider global industry. The Island’s long-standing focus on robust regulation, awareness and mitigation of emerging risks and constructive engagement with industry continues to underpin its reputation as a trusted and well-governed jurisdiction.”
Global Gaming Solutions added that clear, public affirmation of Government support plays a valuable role in maintaining confidence during periods of change, particularly for jurisdictions with a strong international reputation for regulatory quality and cooperation.
The Isle of Man Government stated that it will continue to work closely with industry. The aim is to support sustainable growth, meet international standards, and secure the sector’s long-term success. The Government will carry out further outreach and information sharing over the coming year to ensure regulatory expectations and emerging risks are clearly understood.
