Romania Blacklists bwin.party

Romania’s online gaming regulators have blacklisted bwin.party brands for violating Romanian gambling policies. Bwin allegedly promoted their sites to Romanian customers, while regulators were reviewing the country’s online gaming laws.

Bwin.party brands have been blacklisted by the Romania’s ONJN regulator.

Bwin recently re-paid €8 million in back taxes and had been approved an iGaming license in the country, but ONJN published a new blacklist of offending operators which featured bwin.com, partycasino.com and partypoker.com.

The regulator said bwin.party brands had breached national gambling polices by promoting their services to Romanian consumers, while government authorities were carrying a review of the country’s online gaming framework. Bwin.party brand should have terminated all marketing activity for Romania during this period, ONJN said.

It’s not clear if bwin brands would be removed from the list now that it has regained its license in the country.
