Distribution and platforms: Can we ship through apps and platforms?

The only distribution-control mechanism evidenced for Morocco is ISP-level blocking mediated through telecom carriers, and it has just been judicially suspended. The January 2026 Casablanca Commercial Court order directed Maroc Telecom, Orange Maroc and Inwi to block a named list of offshore betting and casino platforms, with daily fines attaching to telecom non-compliance. On 10 February 2026, the Casablanca Court of Appeal suspended the order on the basis that telecom operators are neutral carriers not properly subject to a blocking mandate directed at them rather than at the platforms. The practical consequence is that the named offshore platforms remain reachable by Moroccan players, and the distribution-blocking lever tested is not currently operative. The appellate ruling addressed only the mechanism, leaving the underlying question of the offshore platforms' legal status unresolved.
