How European countries are going to legalize their gambling markets is a complex issue. Spain has a powerful body responsible for regulating digital or online casino platforms. Italy places more power and autonomy on local governments in order to regulate gambling in the country. Finland allows sports betting and bingo games in a digital format. In Italy, all activities involving sports bets, card games, lotteries, and other casino games are legal. In 2020, the government accounted for 40 licenses to be available for application for prospective online gambling operators. The licenses were made available at a starting price of 2.5 million Euros apiece.

There is a trend towards having more lenient and progressive gambling legislation in Europe. Greece has had a gambling regulation law in practice since 2011. The country is going to actively promote its online gambling market.
