Gibraltar's rules require separate authorisation for prediction market operators
Gibraltar's Prediction Market Regulations 2026 took effect on 13 July under the Gambling Act 2025, requiring operators to obtain separate authorisation. At the Prediction Markets Summit Europe on 10 November, Justice, Trade and Industry Minister Nigel Feetham said Gibraltar would not lower its standards to attract business and cautioned that its authorisation does not confer access to other markets. Gibraltar reportedly had issued two authorisations, with further applications under consideration.
Operators need a Gibraltar-specific authorisation, which does not itself permit access to markets where prediction markets are restricted.
