The Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (GRAI) will take charge of the online Irish betting market this week in the final stage of the biggest regulatory overhaul of the country’s gambling sector in decades.

Established by the Gambling Regulation Act 2024, the GRAI is expanding its jurisdiction over Irish betting operations. This move marks a significant milestone in the comprehensive reform of the Irish gambling industry, representing a pivotal moment since the establishment of the state.
