Maximize market reach with Slotegrator’s new channelization report

Where do players draw the line and head offshore? Slotegrator, a leading software developer and aggregator, takes a close look at how regulations and taxation affect channelization in selected European iGaming markets.
Slotegrator has released a new PDF report that dives into the details of how different European markets’ regulations and taxation systems could be affecting their channelization rates, looking at countries like Sweden, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, the UK, and more. The aim of the report is to find what levels of regulation are acceptable for players, and where they drive players to black market operators — and it’s not as simple as you think.
In regulated markets, players have a choice: they can play at licensed casinos that operate under national regulations, or they can seek alternatives in offshore platforms. The degree to which players opt for licensed operators is known as channelization, and it is one of the most important factors in determining the success of a regulated market. Channelization depends on multiple factors, including taxation rates, advertising restrictions, and the availability of attractive games and promotions.
If the regulatory framework is too strict or the licensed offerings fail to meet player expectations, gamblers will turn to unlicensed alternatives. This not only reduces tax revenue for the government but also puts players at risk, as offshore platforms may not offer the same level of consumer protection.
Players are always looking for engaging experiences, a diverse game portfolio, seamless payment solutions, and attractive bonuses. If licensed platforms fail to deliver, players will have little incentive to stay within the regulated ecosystem.
But understanding and addressing these challenges requires deep market insights.
Navigating European iGaming markets requires operators to make informed decisions. Slotegrator’s latest report analyzes relevant regulations and tax systems in selected European markets to see which common laws are most likely to send players to black market operators.

“Conducting careful market research is an essential step in starting an online casino,” says Ataur Abeer, Sales Manager at Slotegrator. “This report is absolutely crucial for getting a handle on how regulations in different markets affect channelization rates, showing operators which European countries have the healthiest regulated markets.”
