Sweden’s Supreme Court orders Betsson to repay player more than €500,000

Regulation

Sweden’s Supreme Court ordered Betsson to repay a former player just over €500,000, upholding a December 2023 appeals court ruling. The court found the company knew the player had serious gambling problems and continued targeted marketing during 2009–2014; Betsson said the case involved specific circumstances and was not expected to have broader financial consequences.

The ruling may affect how operators use customer gambling data and market to players showing serious gambling problems.
