Before domestic affiliates had time to relax a little after solving all the problems that 2020 presented them, 2021 came, and new worries came with it. Online gambling was among the first to be hit. Despite the fact that the offers are good, and the players show good activity in this regard, it has become much more difficult to work in this segment if you don’t have a trick up your sleeve.
Unpleasant surprises rained down from where no one expected them – as a result of another attack by the Central Bank on money transactions through Qiwi and Yumani (former Yandex.Money), making deposits to personal accounts in online casinos has become much more difficult. Not so long ago, the regulation of the regulator came into force, according to which operations on the transfer of funds from individuals to non-resident companies and vice versa are limited.
Restrictions are valid for six months, starting from January 12 of the current year. This means that right now the usual payments of gamblers are massively blocked, therefore, the turnover in the casino is falling, and arbitrageurs suffer from this as well. What to do, how to solve the problem?
As experienced specialists say, there are two ways out of this situation: if you can’t upload traffic to the Russian Federation, you need to pour it to Ukraine or other countries. Although there are much fewer players there, there is more stability – the legislative base is more loyal, payment systems function without restrictions, which means that everything will be in order with the demand for offers.
Casting after such massive bans and restrictions on the Russian market is at least unprofitable. But even in this situation, there may be masters who will receive a certain income. It is much more reasonable, and the majority of arbitrageurs are leaning towards this, to go to the markets of the former USSR and neighboring countries – now is the best time for this.
