Spanish lottery administrators protest over online sales rules and commissions
Spanish lottery administrators demonstrated outside SELAE’s Madrid headquarters on 9 July, seeking rules for online sales, higher commissions and talks with the state operator. The groups said online sales account for nearly 30% of turnover for many administrations and argued that a SELAE-owned digital platform could reduce their business; they also sought a role for the DGOJ in supervising online sales.
The dispute concerns how online lottery sales are regulated and whether retail administrators retain access to that channel.
