Maarten Haijer, Secretary General of the EGBA, said: “Europe’s online gambling market continues to show strong demand-driven growth and a switch to mobile devices.

“The current situation of diverging and sometimes conflicting regulations in EU countries is detrimental to consumers, authorities and operators alike.”
