😂 iGaming in Estonia: the tax was canceled… by mistake

In January 2026, Estonia had a rare regulatory fail: due to a single wording issue in the law, online casinos were formally left without a tax for the entire year.

The amendments were supposed to reduce the tax burden, but in the final version the tax was tied only to games of skill — while games of chance (i.e. all classic gambling) simply fell out of the legal text.

The mistake has already been acknowledged, and the law will be urgently fixed. Still, the case is illustrative: even in one of Europe’s most precise jurisdictions, a single line of text can mean millions lost. Regulation is always about the details.

🔥 iGaming: how the industry grew up

Over 30 years, iGaming has evolved from clunky dial-up websites to a global industry with licenses, regulators, and AI embedded in almost every second product. If we simplify it, the industry went through three key eras.

📌 The 1990s: the first online casinos and the “wow” effect
The internet was slow, the design was rough, but the idea was revolutionary: gambling for real money without leaving home.
The first software and payment providers appeared — Microgaming, Cryptologic. Antigua became one of the first jurisdictions to issue online casino licenses, and the market started growing with almost no rules.

📌 2003–2008: the poker boom and global money
The real explosion came with online poker. Chris Moneymaker’s story — winning $2.5 million — turned poker into a mass phenomenon. ESPN broadcast tournaments, millions of people joined poker rooms worldwide.

📌 The 2010s: the end of chaos and the era of regulation
In the 2010s, iGaming entered a phase where survival and legalization mattered more than growth at any cost. A wave of regulation hit the industry hard: some operators and affiliates couldn’t handle the pressure, lost markets, and shut down. But new players emerged, building businesses around licenses, compliance, and local rules. For iGaming, this was both the collapse of the old “wild” model and the birth of a full-fledged global digital industry.

👉 A detailed article is now live on the blog. Besides the history of iGaming, it covers industry structure and segmentation, the market, payment solutions, and more. Read it here.
