Gambling operators must implement joint deposit limits per player within 3 months

This Royal Decree introduces a system of joint deposit limits per player that operators must implement. It modifies several articles of Royal Decree 1614/2011 and 176/2023, including Article 9.2, to establish controls on the total amount a player can deposit jointly with others. Limits must be communicated to users and apply from 25 March 2027 (art. 1.7).

In 3 key points

  1. Operators must establish joint deposit limits per player (art. 9.2 del RD 176/2023)
  2. Limits must be communicated to users (art. 13.1 del RD 1614/2011)
  3. The system comes into force on 25 March 2027 (disposicion final)

How it affects those involved

Gaming operators must rapidly implement new deposit control systems to comply with regulations, necessitating technological investment and changes to registration processes. Consumers gain greater protection against excessive deposits. Gaming advisors must inform their clients about the new limits. Authorities will be able to better supervise compliance with these limits.
