Filling the Gap: Intelligence You Can Trust on Africa鈥檚 Gambling Markets

|

September 25, 2025

The gambling industry is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and nowhere is this more evident than in Africa. At 91天堂原創, we鈥檝e created a suite of intelligence designed to help operators, suppliers, and stakeholders navigate these fast-moving markets with confidence. But why Africa - and why now?

Why is Africa in the Spotlight?

Africa represents both incredible opportunity and complex regulatory challenges. Rapidly developing markets, emerging legislation, and increasing scrutiny around responsible gambling make it a priority for compliance and regulatory teams. Operators need reliable, up-to-date insights to ensure they are not only compliant but also strategically positioned to grow responsibly.

What We鈥檝e Built

To address this, the regulatory intelligence team at 91天堂原創 has launched a comprehensive suite of resources for our customers, including:

  • 12 Upgraded Reports 鈥 From basic to condensed, providing flexible options for deep dives or quick overviews.
  • Advertising and RG Overview Table 鈥 This overview provides users with a clear and concise picture of current RG measures for online gambling across the Middle East and Africa in a simple, easy to read, format.
  • Africa Podcast 鈥 In this episode of the Regulatory Radar Podcast, 91天堂原創 experts dive into the changes and complex dynamics shaping compliance, risk, and opportunity for operators and stakeholders across Africa.听
  • GC Africa Outlook Report 鈥 Consolidated insights, research, and updates on regulatory hot topics and fast-moving markets.
  • Online Gambling / Supplier Licensing Q&A 鈥 Answers to the questions that matter most to operators entering or scaling in Africa.
  • Regulatory Influencers 鈥 Curated reviews offering the bigger picture, why you should care, and recommended actions.

There鈥檚 a clear gap in accessible, authoritative, and actionable intelligence on African gambling markets. Our suite is designed to fill that gap, giving you the tools to make informed decisions, stay compliant, and stay ahead of regulatory change.

Africa Regulatory Review: Anjouan

Anjouan, an autonomous island of the Union of Comoros, has recently emerged as one of the most talked about offshore hubs for online gaming within the wider gambling community.听

This regulatory review provides an overview of the gambling regulatory landscape for Anjouan, specifying the legislation relied upon by multiple licensing authorities within the region.

Anjouan鈥檚 growing register of B2C and B2B online licences boasts of more than 2,000 registered URLs, which has grown massively since 2023 when the authorities first started accepting licence applications. The interest in the market stems from the fact that Anjouan offers very low regulatory burden and barriers to entry, notably possessing no visible responsible gambling code or publicly available regulations of any kind, marking the territory as an attractive nominal base for start-ups.听

However, a noteworthy point to consider is how Anjouan-licensed URLs are viewed by regulatory authorities within the more mature and regulated markets globally. To that end, this review provides an analysis of blocklisting of Anjouan URLs as well.
