Gambling Authority Denmark News

Spillemyndigheden, the Danish gambling regulator, has dropped the hammer on a number of websites it says was operating illegally in the country.It has contacted Denmark’s Internet Service. Spillemyndigheden, the Danish gambling regulator, has identified a number of skin gambling sites operating illegally in the country and began working with proper authorities to cease operation in Denmark. The Spillemyndigheden has now contacted Denmark’s Internet Service Providers (ISP) and requested that access to these Counter-Strike skin gambling sites be blocked for not possessing. The Danish Gambling Authority formed in 2000, is an executive ministry that operates under the Danish Ministry of Taxation. Their duties involve the issuing of licenses to provide gambling, supervision of gambling operators, and monitoring the gambling industry. Denmark’s move towards the free market began in 2008 when the Danish Gambling Authority began drawing up legislation to open the market to online gambling operations. Danske Spil pushed back against the new laws on the grounds that it was unfair that online gambling operators would be subject to lower taxes than land-based casinos.

Based on 2019 data from H2 Gambling Capital, Finland led the way among the countries listed, despite Veikkaus being the only legal operator, with an average spend of DKK3,148 per adult per year.
Italy and Ireland were second and third at DKK2,586 and DKK2,546 respectively. Denmark’s Nordic neighbours Iceland and Sweden, meanwhile, saw players wager an average of DKK2,216 and DKK2,163 respectively. Great Britain was also slightly ahead of Denmark with players spending DKK 2,116.
Only two countries in the sample saw players gamble less than in Denmark; Switzerland, with DKK2,051 per person and Greece, with DKK1,788.
Danish gamblers were also more likely to place sports bets rather than playing casino games or lotteries when compared with other countries. While the average European bettor in the sampled countries spent only 16.6% of gambling spend on betting, Danes spent 25.6%.
Meanwhile, 41.7% of Danish gambling spend went on casino games, compared to 45.4% in the rest of the countries sampled and 32.7% on lotteries compared to an average of 38.0%.
Spillemyndigheden said one reason for this may be that countries with online gambling monopolies, such as Finland, have less attractive sports betting offerings.
Yesterday, Spillemyndigheden reprimanded LeoVegas for failings in its customer verification processes after an internal investigation at the operator discovered that some temporary accounts were converted to permanent accounts without the necessary checks due to an error.
In addition, the regulator revealed yesterday that Spillehallen.dk fell foul of the authority a year ago for an inadequate anti-money laundering policy.
