Summary
The Autorité nationale des jeux (ANJ) in France announced Friday 17 July blocking access to the betting site on Polymarket news, on which it was already prohibited since November 2024 to carry out financial transactions from France. The 2020 platform allows its users to bet on upcoming events. If financial transactions were already prohibited since November 2024, French Internet users could still consult the platform.
Furthermore, France tightens the screw against the bets on news and blocks access to Polymarket, already banned in France since November 2024. LANJ recalls that prediction sites "are not allowed in France and are considered illegal gambling sites and therefore expose their users to many risks (addiction, integrity, etc.) in the absence of regulation".
