Kansspelautoriteit, the Dutch Gambling Authority, has secured co-operation agreements with several payment service providers (PSP) in an effort to stop payments to unlicensed gambling operators offering gambling services to Dutch punters illegally.
Processors include PSP’s Mollie BV, DialXS BV, BV Sisow, Currence, Mastercard and members of the Payments Association Netherlands, Dutch Banks and PaySquare SE.

The current PSP’s involved consider blocking these payments as a social responsibility.
