The Netherlands’ regulator – Kansspelautoriteit (KSA) – has published its amended Responsible Gaming Policy Rule, mandating deposit limits of €300 ($327) for players aged between 18-24 and €700 ($764) for players aged over 24.
Announcing the new rules [Monday], KSA hailed the new deposit limits as being a “major step” in creating a safer market for young people.
The Responsible Gaming Policy Rule was published in the Netherlands’ Official Gazette today and has come into effect immediately. However, KSA clarified that certain policies, including the deposit limits, will come into effect from 1 October. This is because certain IT adjustments need to be implemented. In addition, operators will need time to recruit new employees to oversee the change.
