FanDuel’s next growth play goes beyond sports betting.


FanDuel has launched FanDuel Predicts, its new prediction market platform, starting with a limited rollout across five US states.

A major enforcement move reshapes the Dutch iGaming landscape.


LeoVegas has been fined €500,000 by the Netherlands Gambling Authority following an investigation into player protection failures. The regulator found that warning signs of excessive gambling were not addressed in a timely or effective manner. Several player cases showed prolonged high losses without sufficient intervention. The KSA says duty of care is a non-negotiable obligation for licensed operators. This case underscores the Netherlands’ reputation as one of Europe’s toughest regulatory environments. Operators active in the market are being urged to reassess compliance frameworks.

Japan has taken a firm stance against sports betting reform.


Lawmakers across party lines have agreed to block any legalisation of sports betting, warning it could undermine trust in sport. The move comes as illegal offshore betting continues to grow rapidly. Authorities estimate trillions of yen are wagered annually through overseas platforms. Instead of opening a regulated market, Japan is strengthening enforcement and anti-fraud measures. A new parliamentary task force will examine legislative responses to match-fixing risks. The decision highlights Japan’s cautious approach to gambling reform.
