Germany’s Joint Gambling Authority outlined player-protection requirements under the 2021 State Treaty on Gambling for virtual slots, online poker, sports betting and horse betting. For virtual slots, the rules include at least five seconds between games, an acknowledgement after 60 minutes of continuous play and a further five-minute wait before play can resume.
Operators in the listed online gambling sectors can use the guidance to identify applicable player-protection requirements.
