Summary
Switzerland's Gespa has published an overview of sports betting regulation, covering the Loterie Romande and Swisslos products Jouez Sport and Sporttip and locally licensed betting. The regulator says it sets binding limits on the scope of the lottery companies' betting offer to reduce match-manipulation risk. Net revenue from sports betting must go entirely to charitable purposes under the constitution.
Why it matters
Operators and suppliers in Switzerland must work within Gespa's binding limits on betting-offer scope and the constitutional rule that net sports-betting revenue goes to charitable purposes.
