Internet Vikings, a licensed hosting provider for the North American iGaming and online sports betting industry, has announced that its hosting solutions are ready to launch in Alberta, Canada. Internet Vikings’ infrastructure and operational processes already align with the province’s expected requirements, meaning the company can help operators enter the Alberta market faster and with greater confidence.

The expansion comes following the release of updated hosting, infrastructure, and security requirements by the AGLC. As Alberta prepares to open its market, operators and suppliers are facing strict requirements around cybersecurity and disaster recovery.

Internet Vikings’ experience supporting regulated operators across North America positions the company to help businesses comply with these operational and regulatory requirements efficiently from day one.

Requirements include adherence to internationally recognized security standards such as SOC 2 and ISO 27001. In addition, operators are expected to maintain disaster recovery environments, encrypted immutable backups, and perform routine recovery testing to ensure business continuity.

“We are ready to provide the infrastructure and local expertise operators need to launch and scale successfully. We are already working with operators preparing for launch and understand the urgency involved in getting compliant infrastructure deployed quickly,” said Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings.

Internet Vikings first established operations in Ontario in 2022 and is now expanding its Canadian footprint into Alberta with hosting solutions, including VMware cloud hosting, bare metal servers, bare metal GPU servers, disaster recovery, and backup solutions.

Internet Vikings, a licensed in-state hosting provider for the U.S. iGaming and online sports betting industry, announces the continued expansion of its partnership with RubyPlay, as the tier-one studio partner enters the West Virginia market.

Building on a successful collaboration that began with RubyPlay’s U.S. debut in New Jersey in 2025, the company has once again selected Internet Vikings as its trusted hosting partner. This latest expansion reaffirms its confidence in Internet Vikings’ infrastructure, bringing its studio-based content ecosystem to operators within the Mountain state.

As part of this setup, Internet Vikings is delivering a robust environment ensuring data integrity and uninterrupted operations for RubyPlay in the state. As RubyPlay grows its presence in the US, Internet Vikings will continue to provide the infrastructure and support needed to succeed across multiple states.

“We’re pleased to continue supporting RubyPlay as they grow in the U.S. market. Their decision to expand with us into West Virginia reflects our ability to consistently deliver reliable hosting solutions,” said Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings.

As RubyPlay grows its presence, Internet Vikings will continue to provide the infrastructure and support needed to succeed across the US.

Internet Vikings, a licensed in-state hosting provider for the U.S. iGaming and online sports betting industry, has signed a deal with the UK-based iGaming supplier and content aggregator, 1X2 Network. Under the agreement, Internet Vikings will deliver hosting services from its two West Virginia data centers, supporting 1X2 Network’s continued growth and operations in the regulated U.S. market. This dual-data center setup delivers built-in redundancy, ensuring operational resilience.

While 1X2 Network entered the U.S. market last year, this agreement reflects the strong alignment between the organizations and Internet Vikings’ growing presence and reputation as a trusted hosting partner in regulated states.

“We’re pleased to welcome 1X2 Network as a customer and to support their U.S. operations from our West Virginia infrastructure. This agreement is the result of our shared understanding of what’s required to operate reliably in regulated markets,” said Rickard Vikström, Founder and CEO of Internet Vikings.

Internet Vikings demonstrated its ability to deliver services rapidly while remaining flexible to accommodate customer-specific requirements.

“Internet Vikings showed a high level of responsiveness and flexibility throughout the process. Their willingness to adapt to our requirements made them a strong partner for this deployment,” said Christopher Reid, Commercial Director at 1X2 Network.

Internet Vikings continues to expand its customer base across regulated U.S. jurisdictions, providing hosting and disaster recovery solutions designed specifically for the iGaming and online sports betting industry.
