As part of the UK Gambling Commission’s ongoing work to reduce gambling harm, all online and offline gambling products with the exception of non-remote lotteries will stop allowing consumers in Great Britain to use credit cards to gamble from 14 April 2020. According to UK Finance, this will affect around 800,000 consumers of which 22% are classified as problem gamblers.

Two of one of the biggest iGaming companies have just entered new UK gaming markets. NetEnt has signed its second ever retail agreement and entered the UK land-based market, whereas Cherry iGaming is proud to get its fourth license from the UK Gambling Commission to continue its expansion online.
