The Netherlands’ self-exclusion service is back online after a technical glitch prevented Dutch gamblers from registering.
‘Centraal Register Uitsluiting Kansspelen,’ or CRUKS for short, is an online service that under normal circumstances permits Dutch citizens to take a break from gambling.
Licensed operators are required to check whether a player is registered before allowing them to gamble, though in past months, there have been claims some licensees have foregone this obligation.
Regardless, no one was able to register earlier this week due to a technical mishap. Gamblers were also unable to consult their registration or make any changes. But after a brief, unscheduled hiatus, CRUKS is back online.
