Netherlands Sports Betting Licensing Requirements

01

KOA Licence

An operator must hold the appropriate Dutch remote-gambling licence before offering online sports betting to consumers in the Netherlands. Operators and customers can verify authorized businesses through the official Kansspelwijzer .

02

System Requirements

Applicants must demonstrate that their gambling system supports the applicable testing, regulatory-control, reporting and data requirements. Licensed online operators must also implement the required connection to Cruks, the Dutch national gambling self-exclusion register. For applications submitted from 1 January 2026, operators must address the Ksa’s 2026 exit-plan requirements , including the controlled termination of services, protection of player balances and continued handling of regulatory data.

03

Integrity Requirements

The Ksa conducts integrity assessments relating to applicants, licence holders, policymakers, controlling parties, financing and relevant business relationships. Operators must continue satisfying applicable integrity requirements after authorization is granted.

04

Advertising and bonuses

Sportsbook promotions must comply with Dutch gambling-advertising restrictions. The Ksa’s Dutch bonus and advertising requirements state that bonus conditions must be presented clearly and that bonuses must not target minors, young adults or other vulnerable groups.

05

B2B vs B2C

A business that only develops or supplies sportsbook technology does not necessarily perform the same regulated activity as a consumer-facing gambling operator. The licensed operator remains responsible for its gambling offering and for ensuring that outsourced technology supports the applicable requirements. However, each supplier’s responsibilities should be assessed according to its actual functions, contractual role and control over the gambling system.
