Belgian Gambling Commission Wants Limit on Gambling Advertising

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

The Belgian Gambling Commission (BGC) has proposed six strict measures on gambling advertising amid government plans to tighten controls. It wants a limit on gambling ads, a ban on personalised ads targeted at certain groups of players and more power to act quickly when rules are broken.

The regulator said the government should “determine the volume of permitted advertising” but did not suggest a volume itself.

It said that it would like to see general restrictions on who can be targeted by gambling ads, but it particularly wants a ban on targeting personalised ads at young people, excluded players and players who have not gambled for a long time.

It didn’t suggest what age limit would apply for the first of those, or how long would need to elapse for players to qualify as not having played for a long time.

The BGC also called for a requirement to allow all players to opt out of receiving personalised ads. It also wants warning messages to be required for all gambling ads and a ban on advertising in public places like billboards in train stations.

It also requested the power to act quickly when rules are broken and greater flexibility to enforce rules.

It said: “Experience has shown that an exhaustive enumeration of prohibitions relating to the content of advertising, as currently contained in the Royal Decree of 2018, is not sufficient to prevent abuses and excesses, and that certain rules quickly become obsolete and cannot be maintained.

“Guidelines would have the advantage of being ‘future proof’ and evolutionary in order to better reflect the reality and changes on the ground. This would also strengthen the role of the Gambling Commission as regulator.”

It added: “Conducting a lengthy sanctions procedure, as is currently the case, is of no use in the context of an advertising campaign that is short-lived by nature.”

Parimatch are promising to help Leeds United fans enjoy an “unforgettable” season as part of their official partnership with the Premier League club.

The UK-licensed sportsbook are the Whites’ official betting partner for the 2025-26 season and are preparing a series of fan-first activities throughout the campaign.

Leeds are back in the top flight after winning promotion with the Championship title last season.

And first up from Parimatch is a ticket giveaway ahead of the first home game of the season – Monday night’s clash with Everton at Elland Road – in a competition in partnership with local media.

Parimatch will continue to offer Leeds fans exclusive opportunities throughout the season, including the chance to win signed memorabilia, unforgettable matchday experiences and the chance to meet Leeds legends.

Adam Davenport, Head of Parimatch UK, said: “For us, it’s never just about a logo on a shirt – it’s about giving Leeds fans memories they’ll talk about for years. We want to be right there in the thick of it, celebrating the big wins, feeling every kick on those tense nights under the Elland Road lights, and sharing in the roar when the ball hits the back of the net. This partnership is about passion, pride and unforgettable fan experiences – from giving away tickets to the biggest matches, to putting signed shirts straight into the hands of supporters, to creating moments with Leeds legends that money simply can’t buy. We know how much this club means to the city and we’re here to make this season one to remember on and off the pitch for every Leeds United fan.”
