Summary
Germany's GGL published its 2024 activity report on 27 June 2025, covering supervision of 141 providers and 230 licence and amendment applications. The regulator said it opened 231 prohibition proceedings and reviewed more than 1,700 websites, with about 450 made inaccessible by prohibition orders and 657 via geo-blocking. The GGL estimates the illegal online gambling share at about 25%.
Why it matters
The GGL's estimate that a quarter of Germany's online gambling market is illegal signals sustained enforcement risk for licensed operators and their suppliers.
