The German Federal State of Sachsen-Anhalt (Saxony-anhaut) has released a list of online gambling operators who have applied for and received a license there. The whitelist is published in accordance with Section 9 (8) of the GlüStV 2021 and is currently composed of 35 license holders.

Online live dealer game streaming has been banned outright. Bwin, several Tipico subsidiaries, Bet365 and Cashpoint by the Gauselmann Group are among the sports betting operators on the whitelist. There is no list of gaming operators that had submitted applications. Transitional tolerance for the interim period until the treaty went into effect in July 2020 will apply to all operators.

The national gambling regulator, Glücksspielbehörde, will be headed up by two new executives sharing dual leadership roles – Benjamin Schwanke and Ronald Benter. The Bundesländer led the other states in seeking to regulate and tax online gambling.
