Online gambling in the Netherlands is regulated by the Kansspelautoriteit (KSA) since the Remote Gambling Act (Koa) came into force in October 2021. Operators wishing to offer their services to Dutch players must obtain a KSA licence, integrate the CRUKS register (self-exclusion) and comply with responsible gambling limits. iDEAL is the preferred payment method in the Netherlands — available at all KSA-licensed casinos.
CRUKS (Centraal Register Uitsluiting Kansspelen) is the mandatory Dutch self-exclusion system for all KSA-licensed casinos. Players can register with CRUKS via the Dutch gaming authority (kansspelautoriteit.nl) for periods of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years or indefinitely. Offshore casinos under Curaçao licence are not subject to CRUKS but are technically illegal for Dutch operators. Individual players are not prosecuted.
