France orders internet providers to block Polymarket over gambling authorisation
France’s National Gambling Authority directed internet service providers to block Polymarket after finding it operated without the required gambling authorisation, according to a report. The regulator indicated that the block would remain until the platform met French gambling standards, with no timeline given; it also raised concerns about weather wagers and potential user losses.
The order restricts Polymarket access in France until it meets the regulator’s stated standards.
