The Dutch Gambling Authority (Ksa) has imposed an order subject to periodic penalty payments on Techno Offshore Limited and Novatech Solutions N.V. for offering illegal gambling services. Through the websites simplecasino.com, nolimitbet.com, qbet.com, and 55bet.com, these companies provided unauthorized gambling opportunities to Dutch players. The Ksa demands that these illegal operators immediately cease and permanently halt their activities. Failure to comply will result in a penalty of €280,000 per week, up to a maximum of €840,000. 1t4l2w

Operators without a Ksa license are required to ensure that Dutch players cannot access their services. Both parties subject to this enforcement order failed to meet this requirement. During an initial investigation into Techno Offshore, Ksa inspectors were able to create s and start playing directly. In a follow-up investigation, all email addresses and names traceable to the Ksa were blocked, but other Dutch names and email addresses were not. The Ksa views this as a serious violation, interpreting it as an intentional attempt by the operators to evade enforcement.While a subsequent inspection found that the website was blocked for Dutch players, inspectors were still able to access similar services via 55bet.com, another website owned by the same operator.

With an enforcement order, we aim to halt the illegal activity as quickly as possible. However, we can still impose significant fines for the same violations later on.

Offering online gambling to players in the Netherlands is only allowed with a license from the Ksa, which comes with strict rules and regulations. These aim to ensure a safe and legal gambling environment, where players are guaranteed fair play and are protected from gambling addiction. Such safeguards are not present with illegal operators.
