About WagerX Regulatory Intelligence
What this is
A free, structured public record of what gambling regulators actually do. Every published fine, license suspension, revocation, AML warning, player-protection order, and policy change is captured as a dated, source-linked record — searchable on the News Tracker, browsable by country, and downloadable as open data.
Regulator output is scattered across dozens of authority websites in different languages and formats. We turn it into one consistent dataset the industry can actually work with.
How we build it
Our system reads the official newsrooms of 37 gambling authorities every day. Each item is extracted into a structured record — issuing authority, target entity, action type, fine amount normalized to EUR — and linked back to the primary source on the regulator's own website.
Scope is strict: licensed gambling authorities only. No third-party media, no rumors, nothing fabricated — if we don't compute something yet, it sits on the public roadmap instead. Every record has a stable permalink for citation.
How to use it
Compliance & payments teams: filter the tracker by payment processors or game suppliers, export CSV for internal reporting, or pull the JSON API into your own tooling.
Affiliates & operators: the weekly brief flags market changes before they hit industry media.
Journalists & researchers: everything is CC BY 4.0 with stable permalinks — cite freely, and see the Press Corner for interviews and data requests.
