10% online sports betting tax taken into consideration in Russia
Payment providers QIWI and Skrill, which is part of the Paysafe Group, have been warned by Russian online regulator Roskomnadzor that by allowing payments to black listed operators they have breached the local gambling laws.

Both companies have been given a short period of time to stop their activities with illegal online gambling operators or the regulator will have to serve further punishments.

Recently, Roskomnadzor has been cleaning the market of illegal online operators by shutting down their affiliate marketing and monitoring Russian language sports sizes when it comes to advertising on them.

According to reports, up until now the regulator has already banned around 6,000 blacklisted online gambling websites.
