The UK Gambling Commission has extended the deadline for licensed operators to implement the second phase of its updated deposit-limit regulations.
On Tuesday the commission announced that the original deadline of 30 June 2026 has been postponed to 30 September 2026. This extension will allow additional time to meet new technical and compliance requirements.
The decision followed feedback from gambling operators indicating that more time wass needed to comply with the changes to the Remote Technical Standards (RTS).
These standards were initially revised in October 2025 to introduce customer self-management tools aimed at promoting safer gambling. The second phase of the changes was designed to introduce stricter and more prescriptive rules for deposit limits.
