The Dutch gambling authority Kansspelautoriteit has levied a €25,000 penalty against Casino Zoetermeer BV. The fine addresses the operator’s failure to block registered players from accessing its gaming services.
The regulatory body identified that Casino Zoetermeer permitted individuals listed in the Cruks exclusion register, known as Gokstop, to place wagers. Compliance with the national self-exclusion database is mandatory for all licensed operators in the Netherlands iGaming sector. The oversight resulted in the financial sanction.

This penalty aligns with ongoing enforcement actions across the Dutch market. The Kansspelautoriteit regularly reviews operator practices to ensure adherence to player protection standards. Companies that neglect exclusion register checks face consistent financial consequences.
