There were SGD100,000 individual penalties for Marina Bay Sands Pte Ltd, operator of the Marina Bay Sands casino resort; and Singapore Pools (Private) Limited, the only legal lottery and sports betting operator in Singapore.
Resorts World at Sentosa Pte had in financial-year 2025 a SGD75,000 penalty under Regulation 3 of the Casino Control (Advertising) Regulations 2010, for “failure to carry out or offer, or cause to be carried out or offered, casino promotions, in accordance with the approval by the authority”.
