Leovegas, the online casino games which has been active in the online casino world for over 10 years, experienced a good year in 2021 despite the changes in regulations in Germany and New Zealand regarding online gambling.
Change online gambling policy Germany
In Germany, online gambling regulations have been tightened. The regulation for online casinos has become a lot stricter than for physical casinos. the most important change for Germany in 2021 that has had a lot of impact is to make online slots . As a result, it is not allowed for Germans to play online on slot machines and online fruit machines. Since these casino games are very popular, this was a big slap in the face for the online casinos. Which ended a good 2021 disappointingly.
Change online gambling policy New Zealand
Fortunately, online gambling remained legal in New Zealand. However, there have also been policy changes in New Zealand, which has had a major impact on Leovegas. The New Zealand market was legalized and officially made accessible only to online casinos with a license issued by The New Zealand Gambling Authority. At the beginning of October, there are 10 casinos srnzdd who then received a license to go online with their casino. Leovegas did not belong to these 10 casinos. from that moment on, Leovegas refused the New Zealand players in order to be able to obtain a New Zealand license later. This is not possible as long as online casinos without a New Zealand license keep their casino (illegally) open to New Zealand players. However, by closing the casino for New Zealanders, Leovegas missed a lot of revenue.
