Local betting landscape
France licenses online sports betting, horse-race betting and poker under the ANJ but does not license online casino games, which remain prohibited. Advertising is legal but strictly controlled by the ANJ, which reviews operators' promotional strategies each year. Affiliates must promote licensed operators only.

France opened online sports betting, horse-race betting and poker to licensed competition in 2010 while keeping lotteries with FDJ (now FDJ United) and horse racing pools with PMU. Online casino games have never been licensed and a 2024 proposal to allow them was withdrawn.
Rules that matter to players
Minimum age 18. Players register with identity checks; an interministerial self-exclusion file applies. Bonuses are permitted but regulated.
Advertising and affiliates
The ANJ approves each operator’s annual promotional strategy and has ordered reductions in advertising volume. Advertising must not target minors or present gambling as a source of income. Affiliates may promote licensed operators under the operator’s responsibility.
Tax
Operators pay levies on gross gaming revenue that differ by product. Winnings are not taxed.
