TITLE: Sweden's Court of Appeal Upholds Ban on Bingo Terminals in Kiosks and Retail Environments BODY: On June 16, 2026, Sweden's Court of Appeal (Kammarrätten) upheld the Swedish Gambling Authority (Spelinspektionen) decision to reject a licence application for bingo terminals in retail locations. The court determined that bingo terminals are not appropriate for kiosks and similar environments primarily designed for purposes other than gambling. The Gambling Authority rejected the application on March 21, 2024, after an association sought to operate bingo terminals across 297 retail locations. The Administrative Court (Förvaltningsrätten) initially overturned the Gambling Authority's decision, but the Court of Appeal has now reversed this ruling and reinstated the original rejection. The Court of Appeal reasoned that Sweden's Gambling Act (Spellagen) constitutes restrictive prohibition legislation that expresses a cautious approach to self-service gaming terminals, including bingo terminals. The court concluded it is inappropriate from a public interest perspective to permit bingo gaming in kiosks and comparable retail environments where gaming is not the primary purpose. This decision reinforces the regulatory framework limiting where bingo terminals can be lawfully operated in Sweden, restricting them to traditional bingo halls rather than ancillary retail spaces. The ruling establishes precedent for future licence applications involving self-service gaming terminals in non-dedicated gaming venues.
