EGBA seeks approval for European online gambling harm-marker standard
The European Gaming and Betting Association is urging national standards delegates to approve a voluntary European standard on indicators of harm in online gambling, which is under vote by the European Committee for Standardization. Voting closes on 25 September 2025, and the final standard is expected by early 2026 if approved; national regulators would decide whether to incorporate it into their frameworks.
Operators could face a shared voluntary framework for identifying potentially harmful gambling behaviour across markets.
