The Danish Gaming Commission (DGC) is implementing substantial modifications to gambling data reporting procedures. They are soliciting feedback from stakeholders before these alterations are finalized in 2025 (the precise date remains undecided).
A major change involves reporting individual wagers placed on fixed-odds games. Additionally, there will be new stipulations for disclosing odds and specifics about the events being wagered on, such as the host country and the particular sport.
Furthermore, there are updated regulations for the technology underpinning virtual fixed-odds games, particularly concerning a mechanism known as a Random Number Generator (RNG) – essentially ensuring these games cannot be disrupted mid-game.
Regarding poker, the DGC is clarifying reporting classifications for different poker variations and mandating the provision of winner lists for both tournaments and cash games.
Lastly, there are adjustments to pooled betting game reporting, new prerequisites for jackpot testing data, and a series of minor revisions. The DGC aims to ensure the practicality of these new regulations, thus encouraging all involved parties to provide feedback before their full implementation.
Interested parties must remain involved and offer current data to guarantee the ultimate specifications genuinely function for the sector and attain what authorities desire.
In 2013, Denmark opted to revolutionize the online betting realm. They abandoned the government’s exclusive control and welcomed private enterprises. This constituted a significant stride toward a more open market.
And it appears to be yielding positive outcomes! The Danish Gambling Authority (DGA) announced in 2022 that this deregulation strategy has proven successful over the preceding ten years.
