As the global legal framework for Internet gambling is a ♠ complicated mix of laws and regulations, bwin's situation varies depending on the country concerned. For several years now, the United ♠ Kingdom and Italy have been examples of countries that have regulated their online gaming markets to the advantage of all ♠ stakeholders. Just recently, Italy extended its online licenses to include poker tournaments, and countries like France, Spain, and Denmark announced ♠ their intention to permit private operators access to their markets under stringent conditions and controls. Other countries, on the other ♠ hand, are still pursuing a policy of maintaining a state monopoly of internet gaming, or even a complete ban.
In September ♠ 2024, bwin signed a partnership with UEFA to become an Official Partner of the UEFA Europa League and the UEFA ♠ Europa Conference League for the 2024–24 seasons.[28]
