Holland Casino is taking measures in order to save costs and increase profits. The casino chain is going to start a pilot which will lower the chances of winning at roulette, and jobs at the company’s headquarters are being cut. The measures must be taken because the gambling tax will increase next year, a spokesperson for Holland Casino confirmed after reporting in the Financieele Dagblad.
The gambling tax will be raised from 30.5 percent to 34.2 percent next year. Holland Casino is expecting costs to increase by 30 million euros [$31 million]. The casino chain has said that they want to use the cost-cutting measures and increase in turnover to afford this.
