Jelly Entertainment Awarded Game Host Licence by Gambling Commission and Recognition Notice by MGA
Jelly Entertainment has received regulatory approval for its proprietary platform from both the Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA).
With a Game Host licence in the UK and a Recognition Notice in Malta, the supplier will now have full control of its proprietary technology development and delivery schedule.
These licences pave the way for fostering innovation in platform features and new in-game mechanics as well as bolstering tailored support for operators. It additionally ensures system reliability and security as the business transitions to the next stage in its journey.
Its platform and game content is already certified in accordance with the technical requirements of the Gambling Commission and MGA, and also supports the regulatory requirements of regulators in Sweden, Denmark, Italy and Portugal, as well as multiple other markets.
Having already forged a reputation for successful gaming content, its soon-to-launch titles include CleoPatrick, Midas Riches and Wicked Riches of Oz. Operating since 2020, Jelly is driven to create immersive, supercharged, omni-channel entertainment. In this way it can reach players wherever they are, whenever they want to play, and in any channel they choose – casino, retail or digital. Its manifesto is built on its restless spirit of entrepreneurship; a strategy to differentiate its slot design and delivery by adopting a balanced mix of evolution and revolution.
David Newstead, CEO at Jelly, said: “We are really pleased to see our efforts recognised by another leading authority, and our Notice of Recognition by the MGA is an exciting step forward as we continue to propel ourselves from challenger brand to the ranks of full-service B2B supplier.
Our thanks to the Gambling Commission and Malta Gaming Authority for helping us to achieve another important step on our journey, and we’re looking forward to seeing our titles land in a number of lobbies across Europe and beyond soon.”

MDC Issues Commentary as U.S. Gambling Enters “Regulatory Reset” Following $148 Billion Wagered
Minimum Deposit Casinos (MDC) has issued an expert commentary on what it calls a “regulatory reset” in the U.S. gambling sector, as lawmakers and regulators respond to explosive growth in consumer betting behavior. According to the American Gaming Association, Americans wagered a record $148 billion on sports in 2024. This surge has sparked new scrutiny from both federal and state-level authorities.
Recent legislative efforts in New York, Louisiana, and Montana have targeted sweepstakes-based casinos and skill-based betting formats. Proposed changes include tighter bet size limits, stricter advertising rules, and licensing reforms aimed at reducing player harm and increasing transparency.
“The regulatory environment is catching up with consumer behavior. There’s growing concern over how online gambling is marketed, accessed, and governed. Areas like responsible gaming, ad targeting, and instant deposits are now being looked at much more critically,” said a spokesperson at MDC.
According to the latest figures from the American Gaming Association, U.S. commercial gaming revenue reached $19.44 billion in Q2 2025, marking a 9.8% increase compared to the same period last year. Online casino gaming accounted for $2.6 billion of that total, reflecting a 32.3% year-over-year jump. The numbers underscore continued momentum for digital platforms even as regulations tighten.
MDC’s commentary urges both players and operators to stay ahead of the curve. As laws evolve, demand is rising for licensed platforms that offer low-deposit access, better responsible gambling tools, and full regulatory compliance.
