KSA warns BetMGM over Dutch gambling advert featuring 17-year-old

Enforcement & compliance

The Netherlands’ KSA warned BetMGM after an advert featuring 17-year-old Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal appeared on a news website. The regulator said BetMGM had not reported the breach after learning of it, but issued a warning because the advert was removed quickly and the company took steps to prevent a repeat.

The warning reinforces that Dutch gambling providers remain responsible for advertising breaches involving external partners.
