The state of casino gambling in Italy
Monday 19 May 2008 @ 10:39 am

A few years ago, Italy was intent on keeping its country’s perspective towards gambling negative. Its attempts to curb the rise of gambling’s popularity even prompted them to ban all the IP addresses of online gaming sites back in February of 2006. Fortunately for gambling aficionados, the country’s restrictions on online gambling sites have lightened considerably a few months after the supposed IP ban was reported, even going so far as to enter into a tie-up with a hugely popular online poker room.

By the start of 2007, Italy has completely turned around and has opened its doors to the opportunities that gambling online provides. January 2007 has seen the country legalize online gambling for its citizens, and in turn, has paved the way for other gambling related services such as public sports betting and bingo parlors.

It has been said that “Italy’s change of outlook and regulation for online gambling was mirrored from the UK’s actions towards said activities” (playsportal.net). Another suspicion that people have for the change in opinion is the fact that for every company who does business with Italian customers, the Italian government is expected to make a 3% tax on all gaming related revenues acquired by said company, regardless of their country of origin.

No matter what their motivation for the change in treatment is, the end result is still the same: Online Casino Gambling in Italy, along with other related activities such as sports betting, has become feasible, and more profitable as more and more people catch on.
