Czech Finance Ministry lists Polymarket for blocking over alleged illegal gambling
The Czech Ministry of Finance added Polymarket to its register of websites authorities consider to offer illegal online gambling, reportedly requiring internet providers to block access within a set period. Czech authorities say the platform’s wagers on uncertain outcomes fall under gambling rules and point to its lack of a local licence and consumer-protection risks.
Operators and suppliers serving Czech users face a clearer enforcement signal on prediction-market products and local licensing.
