Online casino
In Turkey, online casinos are not licensed and are considered illegal.
Access to foreign sites is blocked, mirrors and mobile applications are regularly removed; banks and payment providers are required to suppress transactions in favor of unlicensed operators.
Large fines and criminal sanctions are provided for organizing such activities; players face administrative fines.
Only lotteries and mutual sports betting through state platforms remain on the legal side.
Part of the audience goes offshore (VPN, crypto payments), which is associated with high risks - from loss of funds to consequences from supervision.
The immediate prospect is increased technical supervision and advertising control; legalization of online casinos is unlikely.
