ISPA warns South Africans against unlicensed online gambling platforms
The Internet Service Providers’ Association urged South Africans to avoid online gambling sites without local licences, citing legal and financial risks. ISPA said banks must confiscate proceeds linked to unlawful gambling and argued that any restrictions on internet content require a clear legal framework that protects constitutional rights.
The warning concerns operators’ exposure to local licensing rules and the potential forfeiture of winnings from unlawful gambling.
