Swedish regulator orders 45 brands to stop attracting Swedish players

Swedish gambling regulator Spelinspektionen issued a new report urging ten gambling operators without a valid license to stop targeting Swedish players, forcing all 45 brands under those companies to be removed from the regulated Swedish market.

Seven of these ten companies are authorised by Curacao, and two are registered in Malta and Cyprus.

Spelinspektionen has requested 21 operators altogether since December 2019 to avoid attacking players since December 2019. 1xbet was the highest profile operator commissioned to do so.

This order is the first step against providers which don’t have a Swedish license. If they fail to comply, will be fined and if this fail to deter the operator, it will turn to the police.

Spelinspektionen can also apply for court injunctions to block payment providers from processing transactions for these sites.
