What the rule actually is in Ghana

Our own reading, not a summary of someone else's

Gaming Commission-licensed, with operators paying 20% of gross gambling revenue. The 10% withholding tax on player winnings was fully repealed in April 2025 under the Income Tax (Amendment) Bill, which improved player economics and, with them, deposit frequency. All three mobile-money rails dwarf cards here, and MTN MoMo is the one that decides whether a cashier works at all.
