In April 2022, Banking-as-a-Service provider Contis and UK-based Open Banking provider Ecospend have partnered with MrQ.com to deliver an instant account-to-account payment and withdrawal solution.
This will provide MrQ.com customers an alternative deposit method as well as instant withdrawals using a closed loop faster payments solution. The Open Banking solution will reportedly improve user experience, with members able to link bank accounts directly with their MrQ accounts through a streamlined but stringent verification process. This also supposedly reduces the level of fraud risk, as customers are required to access and verify a bank account, rather than just provide payment card details. Due to the increased speed of the payments, the offering will also provide MrQ with a real time view of its own settlement accounts.
Hungary’s parliament has introduced new legislation regarding online gaming that will allow private online operators to enter the market, removing state’s monopoly on sports betting.
As per the new proposals, European Economic Area operators can freely launch their online gaming offerings with the permission of Hungary’s gaming regulator, without worrying about a limit to the number of licenses.
Operators looking to obtain a license must have a capital of over EUR 2.8 million and will pay EUR 1.7 million for their fee. Operators are also obliged to offer a minimum guarantee of HUF 250 million (approximately EUR 700,000).
