Holland Casino, Bingoal and Nederlandse Loterij-owned TOTO Online have secured new five-year online gambling licences. The Netherlands' first five-year permits, issued after the market reopened in October 2021, begin expiring on 1 October 2026.
Nederlandse Loterij announced that TOTO Online received a new five-year licence from the Kansspelautoriteit. The company said the approval will let the brand continue operating after its initial licence period ends.
A serious PHP vulnerability that led several Dutch organisations to take websites offline did not cause confirmed outages at legal online gambling providers, CasinoNieuws.nl reported after checking 30 licensed sites. The Kansspelautoriteit took its own sites offline as a precaution and said registration in the Cruks self-exclusion register was not possible while DigiD was down. Oranje Palace said it does not use PHP, Unibet reported no problems, and Nederlandse Loterij took the TOTO Winkel site offline temporarily.
A serious vulnerability in the PHP programming language, which led several Dutch organisations to take websites offline as a precaution, had not caused confirmed outages at legal online gambling providers as of 21 October. The outlet said it checked the websites of 30 licensed online gambling providers and that all were reachable at the time of writing, and that logging in at all legal gambling sites worked without problems. CasinoNieuws.nl said it examined public technical characteristics of the gambling sites but could not establish which providers use the affected PHP software.
The Netherlands’ KSA criticised TOTO Online over its use of role models in advertising, according to the report. The regulator said it was especially vigilant during the World Cup period, when interest in sports betting could increase.
The Netherlands’ KSA said TOTO Online breached role-model advertising rules through a campaign promoted by eight professional football clubs on social media. The promotion offered a signed club shirt to people placing a €5 bet, and the regulator said using players’ signatures made the athletes indirect promotional figures; it warned of closer advertising supervision around the World Cup.
