Evolution agrees £4.75m settlement after UK review

Evolution has agreed a £4.75m settlement with the Gambling Commission after an 18-month review into the supplier's black market activity. The £4.75m payment was agreed as part of the regulator's 18-month review into how Evolution content had been made available outside licensed channels in the UK.

The Gambling Commission's 18-month review flagged two operators that had offered their content to consumers without holding a UK licence. The settlement with Evolution follows those findings from the 18-month review and relates to the flagged instances of unlicensed distribution of Evolution content in the UK.

The matter centres on black market activity identified by the Gambling Commission during its 18-month probe and the two operators named for offering Evolution content without UK licences.
