Dutch gambling authority the Kansspelautoriteit has announced it will boost the minimum fine for unauthorized online gambling activity in the Netherlands by €50k to €150k.
The KSA also reserved the right to increase fines to a maximum of €810k for repeat offenders or for serious offenders.
The regulator said it prioritizes enforcement actions against operators using a dot-com domain, offering a Dutch-language option and advertising with Dutch-focused radio, TV or print media. The KSA also takes into consideration the number of websites and types of gaming offered by a particular operator, the maximum prizes on offer, the maximum initial deposits and the size of any deposit bonuses.
