24hBet.com & iGame.com closing down Romania

[Shaun O'Neill]

Dear Affiliate

Good news and not so good news. Not so good first so we save the best till last…

As of 1st of September we will no longer provide our services in Romania. This is due to jurisdiction and legal changes related to online gaming in this territory. So, unfortunately we won’t accept Romanian players on 24hBet & iGame after this date.

Remember that your Romanian players are free to play, withdraw and deposit as normal until September 1st, 2015. In case your Romanian players still have funds on their accounts after 1st of September, please advise them to contact support@24hBet.com (www.24hBet.com) orsupport@igame.com (www.iGame.com) so we can manually transfer their funds.

The good news: We have made a lot of tech improvements lately and can now offer an improved customer experience in regards to:

• Payment funnel - easier without clutter
• Improved speed on the site
• Added entercash for easier deposits/withdrawals

What is the main reason? You have to pay 20% tax or something else?

Romania has never been a target market for us, normally when local legislation kicks in there is a long process to gain the license and normally a lot of cost involved so for this reason it does not make it a profitable market for us.

Thanks

Shaun
