The figure is the headline finding of the KSA’s ‘monitoring factsheet’ on Dutch online gambling trends under the mandate of the Remote Gambling Act (KOA Act) – the framework that legalised Dutch online gambling as of October 2021.
Monitoring KOA developments, KSA observes: “The number of accounts played has increased to 1.1 million in 2023. A year earlier, there were 970 thousand. Since players can use more than one account, the number of accounts does not directly indicate the actual number of players.”
In light of duplicate accounts, KSA estimates that on average the KOA market registers 448,000 players per month. However, in the second half of 2023, KSA recorded that 726,000 players were active with legal providers – a figure which reflects that 5% of Dutch adults have gambled online.
