Mobile casinos in Tunisia
The mobile penetration rate in Tunisia stood at 115 percent at the end of 2011, high by African standards. 3G services were introduced to the country that year, potentially expanding the market for mobile casino gaming. Orange Tunisia, Tunisiana and Tunisia Telecom are the country’s mobile providers.
Despite a high rate of mobile users and a young population making it a potential market, mobile casino gambling is illegal in Tunisia. There are no licensed domestic providers and it is illegal to use services provided by external operators. However, like in other African countries, mobile gambling and betting are popular with many people.
