MENA vs Europe
Coming from a European iGaming background, you're going to notice some big contrasts. While Europe is heavily regulated and mostly transparent, the MENA region is still navigating legal uncertainty and cultural taboos. I’d highly recommend this article https://topnews.in/online-gambling-middle-east-and-north-africa-mena-region-2416595: Online Gambling in the MENA Region. It gives a great comparison in terms of regulation, user behavior, and market maturity. There’s definitely potential, but the approach has to be different — much more cautious and tailored. The article does a good job outlining how operators are adjusting their strategies for the region. A must-read if you’re considering expansion.
This is super helpful — thank you! Coming from a European background, I was looking for something that shows how different the MENA market is, especially when it comes to legal grey zones. Bookmarking this for a proper read later tonight.
