25syv A/S has been reported to police by Spillemyndigheden, the Danish Gambling Authority, over alleged breaches of Denmark’s Money Laundering Act linked to its land-based betting business.
The regulator said the case concerns insufficient ongoing monitoring of customers between 1 October 2023 and 14 December 2025. The police report was made on 21 May 2026, following a 20 April reprimand for breach of section 11(1)(5) of the AML Act.
That provision requires gambling operators to monitor established customer relationships and ensure transactions remain consistent with the operator’s knowledge of the customer, including the customer’s business, risk profile and source of funds where necessary.
25syv operates Bet25, a Danish sports betting, casino and horse racing brand. Bet25 says 25syv has held a Danish gambling licence since 1 March 2014 and is 100% owned by Swedish group ATG.
The regulator’s licence register lists 25syv for both online casino and betting. Its casino licence includes roulette, blackjack, baccarat, punto banco, online bingo, poker and gaming machines, while its betting licence covers gambling on the outcome of events.
The police report sits within a wider enforcement sequence. In April, Spillemyndigheden issued 25syv three orders over risk assessment, control performance and politically exposed person screening. It also issued four reprimands covering business procedures, ongoing monitoring, record keeping and reporting obligations.
The regulator said at the time that 25syv had not sufficiently assessed risks linked to its online and land-based offers, had not documented internal control checks and had not conducted politically exposed person screening. It gave the operator one-month, three-month and six-month deadlines to remedy issues covered by the orders.
Under Spillemyndigheden’s AML process, police reports are among the responses available where the regulator identifies potential punishable breaches. The regulator says AML responses, including orders, reprimands and police reports, are published on its website for five years.
The case also comes after another Danish AML enforcement action in April, when Insipia Limited, operator of Betano, was reported to police over alleged enhanced due diligence and large transaction investigation failures.
Spillemyndigheden has also been drawing attention to wider European AML reform. In April, Global Gaming Insider reported that the regulator encouraged operators to respond to AMLA draft regulatory acts covering group-wide minimum requirements and business-wide risk assessments.
