Dutch Online Gambling Accounts Jump by 100,000 in First Half of 2026

The number of active online gambling accounts in the Netherlands increased by approximately 100,000 in the first half of 2026, according to new figures published by the Dutch Gambling Authority (Kansspelautoriteit, KSA). The average number of active accounts per month rose to 1.48 million, up from 1.38 million in the second half of 2025. The increase was accompanied by renewed growth in online gross gaming revenue, even as the regulator continues to flag concerns over illegal market activity and player protection.
