Danish Gambling Authority Publishes Report on Illegal Gambling
The Danish Gambling Authority has released the annual report describing the authority’s work with illegal gambling. In the 2024 report, you can read more about a new collaboration with the streaming platform Twitch, and the authority’s focus on a betting trend involving the video game currency “Robux”.
Every year, the Danish Gambling Authority publishes a report explaining the rules for when gambling is legal in Denmark, and the report also reviews the initiatives implemented in the past year to combat illegal gambling.
One of the initiatives launched in 2024 is a collaboration between the Danish Gambling Authority and the streaming platform Twitch, which allows the authority to report illegal gambling content on the platform in the same way as it already does today with Apple, Facebook and Google. This will strengthen the Danish Gambling Authority’s work to prevent Danish users from being exposed to illegal content on the platform.
Another initiative launched last year is an inspection of the “Robux” betting phenomenon. “Robux” betting refers to the illegal offering of gambling where the virtual currency Robux from the computer game Roblox is used as either a deposit or prize.

The Mill Adventure has obtained GLI-19 certification as it prepares to enter regulated online gaming in Ontario, a key step in the platform provider’s North American expansion plans.
The company said the certification supports technical compliance requirements common across regulated North American markets, including platform functionality, reporting processes, KYC measures and geolocation. GLI-19 is a technical standard used for interactive gaming systems.
The milestone comes ahead of The Mill Adventure’s planned launch with its first client in Ontario. The company said it will build on experience in multiple European regulated jurisdictions as it targets further growth in North America.
The Mill Adventure also pointed to recent developments including the launch of Dutch operator Winz.nl and a wider integration with Optimove’s CRM suite.
Bjørnar Heggernes, Chief Commercial Officer at The Mill Adventure, said: “Achieving GLI-19 certification reinforces that our platform and compliance framework are built to support the complexity regulated operators face in markets like Ontario, without compromising performance or scalability.
“Our focus is not simply on entering North America, but on becoming a long-term technical partner for operators looking to scale efficiently across regulated jurisdictions.”

EveryMatrix has received conditional licensing approval from the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission (AGLC) to offer its iGaming technology in Alberta.
The approval allows the supplier to provide casino and sports platform technologies to licensed operators in the province, which is expected to launch a regulated iGaming market in July. Alberta would become Canada’s second regulated iGaming territory after Ontario.
