Betsson ordered to pay player in unlicensed betting case

Eyes of the iGaming world will be intrigued by the decision of the Rotterdam District Court, which has ordered Betsson Group to pay €385,377 to a Dutch customer.

The customer in question stated that they have lost substantial sums of money gaming with unlicensed websites, and pursued a legal case against BML Group Limited and Corona Limited, two of Betsson Group’s subsidiaries.

The plaintiff has stated that the bets placed with Betsson and Kroon were staked before the group’s takeover of Holland Gaming Technology, a local licence holder/ This meant that the companies were unlicensed operators at the time.

As a result, the company has been ordered to pay the player €385,377 to cover losses and has also been told that it will have to pay an additional fee of €92 every day that the court order is not followed. This will start from 14 days after the court’s 9 April judgment.
