New law allows gambling TV adverts | IXGAMES

 That’s why 1 September is so important

Gambling websites will be able to advertise their services on TV and radio in the UK for the first time from this weekend. The new laws will allow the creation of more regional casinos, bigger slot machine payouts and a new gambling watchdog. All gaming operators based in Britain will be required to show they can meet strict conditions to win a license from the new regulator – the Gambling Commission – to trade. Failure to uphold the Commission’s licensing conditions, which includes the prominent display of information about responsible gambling and anti-money laundering procedures, will result in steep fines and even prosecution. (Betting shops will be able to open from 0700 to 2200 all year round).
