The Dutch Gaming Authority (KSA) has contacted ZEbetting and Betca regarding prohibited betting offers. Both providers offered bets on winning or losing a set during tennis matches. This is not permitted. The KSA has ordered both parties to end the violation and keep it stopped.
Both ZEbetting and Betca have indicated that they have resolved the violation and taken measures to prevent recurrence. The KSA emphasized the importance of monitoring the offering. If providers have nevertheless offered prohibited betting options due to an error, they must also proactively report this to the KSA.
To prevent sports betting manipulation (match-fixing) and protect the integrity of the sport, Dutch gambling legislation prohibits betting on certain matches and events. These include events that are negative or easily manipulated. These events also include winning and losing specific sets in tennis matches. Therefore, bets on these events are prohibited.

As of July 11, 2025, the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) no longer requires Registrar approval for responsible gambling (RG) training programs for casino and lottery employees. This change applies to both the Gaming and Lottery Standards and supports a more flexible, outcomes-based approach.
What’s changing
• Standard 2.5 has been updated to remove the need for Registrar approval of RG training.
• Training must still be mandatory, regularly updated, and based on best practices.
• Employees must understand responsible gambling, their role in player protection, and how to support those showing signs of gambling harm.
What this change means for operators and lottery retailers
• Casino and lottery operators now have more flexibility to design and update RG training.
• Existing PlaySmart training remains valid.
Why this change matters
This change reduces red tape, encourages innovation, and maintains Ontario’s high standards for player protection. This also aligns with AGCO’s outcomes-based regulatory approach and brings greater consistency across gaming sectors, including iGaming.
