The European Casino Association (ECA) calls for stronger cross-border enforcement against illegal online gambling as the black market targeting EU consumers hits €91.6bn (£78.3bn) in 2025.
The ECA has joined the push for enhanced measures to combat illegal online gambling within the EU. The staggering €91.6bn figure for the black market in 2025, representing a 14% increase from the previous year, was disclosed during a high-level roundtable discussion.
This call for action underscores the escalating threat posed by illegal operators in the EU market. The ECA's advocacy for cross-border enforcement aligns with efforts to safeguard consumers and uphold regulatory integrity in the online gambling sector.
