René Jansen, KSA Chairman, emphasized that fines are usually effective enforcement mechanisms and that past violations can still be penalized even after obtaining a license or paying a fine. This is not the first time that LCS has been reprimanded by the KSA. In August 2022, following an investigation in March of the same year, LCS was hit with an initial €165,000 fine.

The most recent fine is calculated at 8% of KSA’s estimated €25.9m turnover for LCS. The decision is part of KSA’s vigilant efforts to enforce the Netherlands’ Gambling Act and protect local consumers from unlicensed gambling operators.

While LCS faces regulatory challenges in the Netherlands, industry leaders are gearing up for SiGMA Europe’s Malta Week festival at the Mediterranean Maritime Hub (MMH) scheduled for November 2023.
