What the rule actually is in the Netherlands
Our own reading, not a summary of someone else's
KSA-licensed and now the most heavily taxed market in Europe. Gaming tax went from 30.5% to 34.2% in 2025 and to 37.8% on 1 January 2026, which is why licensed operators keep trimming bonuses and why the regulator's own 2026 priority list opens with the illegal market. Licences run five years and the 2021 cohort starts expiring on 30 September 2026, with renewal turning on the compliance record; the Remote Gambling Policy Rules 2026 also require every licensee to file an exit plan. Enforcement reaches both layers, since ISPs DNS-block designated domains while the KSA has worked through banks and payment processors for the better part of a decade. Deposits are migrating onto Wero and EPI rails through 2027.
How money actually moves
The rails players reach for, in the order that matters locally

instant bank transfer
~70%+ of deposits; four-corner SEPA model (Currence); operator needs an iDEAL acquirer/CPSP — direct vs reseller affects pricing/refunds/uptime.
- Trustlymajor
instant bank transfer
Secondary A2A; strong for fast withdrawals (iDEAL pays out poorly).
