Online Gaming in Africa

There are a growing number of jurisdictions in Africa that license online gaming.

South Africa, one of the biggest economies in the African region, permits licensed online sports and race betting, but online casino gaming and poker remain prohibited under the National Gambling Act of 2004. Subsequent court decisions have upheld this distinction, while policymakers continue to debate broader online-gaming regulation.
