Swedish regulator Spelinspektionen approved eight additional supplier licences for providers who wish to continue offering their services to operators after 1 July.
The gaming software licences are to be a requirement for any B2B business who continues its relationships with operators in Sweden. The new requirement – which was passed by the Swedish legislature in November – is intended to help throttle the development of the black market in Sweden by restricting the unlicensed operator sector’s access to providers.
The suppliers who have been issued licences by the regulator includes state-owned former monopoly Svenska Spel, Comeon brand Co-Gaming, Game Shop Limited and its Maltese subsidiary.
