The performance marketing agency, WakeApp, has received a license to promote online casino sites in Romania.
This means that now the agency’s clients can run full-scale advertising campaigns using all the relevant traffic sources. In addition to the classic online casino, WakeApp gets the opportunity to promote other licensed projects related to gambling in this country, such as poker, betting, and bingo.
WakeApp is already preparing to launch advertising campaigns with several key clients who have expressed an interest in promoting in Romania.
“In 2021, we became a real guide in the world of white mobile advertising, connecting dozens of new traffic sources and reaching even more licensed countries to promote our partners. Obtaining a license from Romania is the next step of the agency to expand the pool of countries in which we can help our clients to take a leading position in the field of gambling and at the same time attract users in accordance with all legal regulations. We saw positive changes in the legislation of the country and the growing interest from the players, so it was only a matter of time to obtain a license. ” – CBDO Nikolay Belikov.
The company is actively introducing new approaches to traffic generation and according to AppsFlyer, takes a leading position in the mobile advertising market, offering customers a wide range of sources with the highest quality target audience.

With annual nominations in ratings and awards, coupled with many years of experience in the field, the agency has status as a provider in the world of mobile marketing for all WakeApp clients.

The Netherlands Gambling Authority (KSA) has imposed a first penalty payment order on YouTube influencer LeftlanePapi for promoting illegal gambling.
The YouTube channel LeftlanePapi showed videos with live streams of online gambling from illegal providers. The illegal providers were also actively advertised, by encouraging viewers to also play there. The KSA issued a warning to the influencer. Because the content in question was not removed after the warning and new streams were made, the KSA imposed a penalty. Existing content must be removed and no new advertising may be made. If this does happen, the influencer will receive a penalty of €25,000 per violation, with a maximum of €75,000.
With its new approach, the KSA opts for a two-track policy. After establishing a violation, influencers receive a message that they must stop their activities within 48 hours and that illegal content must be removed. If the influencer does not do so, the KSA approaches the social media platform so that the harmful content is removed in any case. The influencer is given a penalty under penalty of a fine, as was also the case with Leftlanepapi. The KSA has now warned several influencers.
