Tipico joins the European Gaming and Betting Association, expanding representation in Germany

The German-based sports betting and online gambling operator Tipico has been welcomed into the European Gaming and Betting Association (EGBA), as it becomes its newest member.

The EGBA group is a Brussels-based trade association which aims to represent online gambling operators who are established, licensed, and regulated within the EU. It then collaborates with national and EU authorities and other stakeholders to try and create a well-regulated online gambling market.

This new addition to the association is said to ‘significantly strengthen’ the group’s representation in Germany and across German-speaking markets.

Going forward, Tipico will start to contribute to EGBA’s working groups and to the association’s initiatives, including those focused on responsible advertising, anti-money laundering, and safer gambling.

Speaking on why the gambling operator values the membership, its director of public policy Jochen Weiner says: “As a company committed to player protection and regulatory excellence, we look forward to contributing our expertise to EGBA’s important work.

“This partnership aligns perfectly with our commitment to promoting high industry standards and our fight against the black market for online gambling in Europe.”

This announcement comes just shortly after the European Gaming and Betting Association released its ‘record-breaking results’ from its fifth annual European Safer Gambling Week which was held in mid-November.
