New Zealand's Department of Home Affairs has asked the 20bet brand to leave the country's marketplace

According to a statement from the Director of Gambling (DIA) at the Department of the Interior, it has been revealed that 20bet has been actively buying ads targeting New Zealand on YouTube. Not just YouTube, of course, but that's the platform in question in this case.

In addition, the operator's website uses local currency and appeals to a New Zealand audience.

To date, New Zealand is in the process of establishing a legal framework for a regulated online casino market. Not long ago, the authorities began penalize Influencers and block their social media accounts for promoting offshore gambling operators. Once one of the most loyal to T1 gambling markets is becoming increasingly difficult.
