No distribution or platform-rule development was identified this cycle. Costa Rica has no dedicated app-store, ISP-blocking, search-de-listing, or affiliate-marketing-platform restriction regime specific to gambling, consistent with the jurisdiction's absence of a purpose-built online-gambling statute.
