GIG exits Aussie online gambling market

News on 12 May 2017

Major online gambling operator Gaming Innovation Group has advised its marketing affiliates that effective May 15 it will no longer accept Australian online punters.

The decision applies to popular online casinos like Guts, Betspin, Rizk Casino, Thrills, Kaboo, and SuperLenny and is understood to be related to forthcoming law and regulatory changes imposed by federal and state governments in Australia that have prompted a growing number of top operators to withdraw (see previous reports).

The question on most players’ lips now is when Pokerstars-Amaya will join the exodus; the company’s CEO, Rafi Ashkenazi suggested earlier this year that this may be necessary.
