Betsson Group Obtains 3 ISO Certificates and 2 Attestations in Italy
Betsson Group, a leading global online gaming operator, has strengthened its commitment to quality, sustainability and responsible business practices through the achievement of three ISO certifications and two independent assessments in Italy. These were awarded to Azzurri Ltd, the Group’s locally licensed entity, by Bureau Veritas – a leader in testing, inspection and certification – following extensive audits of the Group’s Italian operations.
With a presence in over 25 markets and a strong focus on regulatory compliance, ESG and customer experience, Betsson Group continues to embed responsible practices across all areas of its business.
The following internationally recognised standards were awarded:
• ISO 9001 – Quality Management: Recognises effective quality management systems that consistently deliver services meeting customer and regulatory requirements.
• ISO 14001 – Environmental Management: Focuses on reducing environmental impact through responsible resource use and environmental stewardship.
• ISO 26000 – Social Responsibility: Reflects a commitment to ethical behaviour, transparency and contributing to sustainable development.
• ISO 30415 – Human Capital: Diversity and Inclusion: Validates inclusive workplace practices that respect human rights and promote equal opportunities.
• ISO 50001 – Energy Management: Acknowledges systematic efforts to improve energy efficiency and reduce consumption across operations.
“These certifications reflect our Group-wide commitment to operating responsibly, ethically and sustainably. While the audit was conducted for our Italian operations, the values underpinning these standards – from quality and environmental care to diversity and social responsibility – are deeply embedded across Betsson Group,” said Corinne Valletta, General Counsel at Betsson Group.
“Thanks to Betsson’s strong culture and drive towards operational excellence, continuous improvement and commitment towards ESG, the certification process was fairly straightforward. Kudos to the whole team for their commitment and strong knowledge across all disciplines. Their proactive approach to implementing best practices across multiple disciplines is commendable and aligns with the highest international standards,” said Peter Cain, Country Manager at Bureau Veritas Malta.

On 17 April 2026, the UK High Court rejected in full the claims brought by The New Lottery Company Limited (TNLC) and Northern & Shell PLC (N&S) against the Gambling Commission in relation to the award of the Fourth National Lottery Licence.
In summary, the claims alleged that the Gambling Commission had wrongly awarded the Fourth National Lottery Licence to Allwyn, and that instead, TNLC should have won the competition. The claims also alleged that the Gambling Commission and Allwyn had entered into impermissible modifications to the Licence arrangements following the competition.
The lengthy trial of the claims took place in the High Court before Mrs Justice Joanna Smith between 9 October and 2 December 2025, with an additional day on 13 January 2026.
The High Court has now ruled in favour of the Gambling Commission on all of the claims, rejecting the allegations which had been made.
This is an important judgment for the future of The National Lottery. This judgment makes clear that the Gambling Commission ran a fair and robust competition to award the Fourth National Lottery Licence, and that none of the contested changes to the Licence, in the course of its implementation, were substantial or contrary to the relevant procurement regulations.
The judgment gives resounding support to Good Causes by enabling Allwyn, with oversight from the Commission, to continue with their plans of investment in The National Lottery without further distraction.
The National Lottery is one of the world’s largest lotteries and since launching in 1994, National Lottery players have collectively raised more than £52 billion for more than 670,000 Good Causes across the UK, transforming lives and contributing to the arts, sport, heritage and communities.
