The study evaluates the main enforcement tools aimed at preventing unauthorised online gambling, which are

• website blocking
• payment blocking
• advertising regulation (including on social media) 
• different forms of sanctions 

The study also explores other possible avenues for achieving regulatory objectives (e.g. by engaging with software providers) and analyses where unauthorised gambling websites are hosted. Finally, it assesses frameworks for the assessment of EEA countries’ enforcement efforts.
