Polymarket contests KSA operating ban in Dutch court

By SectorWire desk ·

Summary

Polymarket has taken its challenge to the Dutch operating ban to a court in The Hague. The KSA rejected its earlier objection on 23 June 2026. Polymarket argues that its prediction markets are financial products, while the KSA classifies them as gambling requiring a Dutch licence.

Why it matters

The challenge contests the KSA’s classification of prediction markets as gambling and its ban on Polymarket serving Dutch users.
