GGL publishes FAQ on German online gambling advertising rules
Germany’s GGL published guidance on online gambling advertising on 30 September 2026, explaining the rules for authorised offers and how to identify unauthorised ones. Advertising for online slots, poker and casino games is prohibited between 06:00 and 21:00, while sports betting promotion is subject to separate restrictions. The authority said it monitors licensed operators and acts against illegal gambling and its advertising.
Operators and advertising distributors can use the guidance to understand applicable restrictions and compliance duties.
