The Dutch Gaming Authority (Kansspelautoriteit, KSA) has approved Hard Rock Casino NL to offer online sports betting, valid from Monday 12 October 2026.
The approval extends an existing licence rather than issuing a new one. It adds a sportsbook to a brand that has run an online casino since July 2024, according to the iGaming Online report, published 13 October.
Spincore Group runs Hard Rock Casino NL. The report says the brand is operated by iCasino under a brand licence agreement with Hard Rock Digital.
The report does not give a commercial launch date for the sportsbook or describe its products, markets or pricing. Readers should check the brand's own Dutch site for those details before relying on them.
For Dutch players who already use the casino, the approval means the same brand can now offer sports betting under KSA supervision. Anyone choosing a sportsbook there should check the KSA's register for the licence before depositing.
