Odds On Compliance, the industry-leading technology and consultancy firm specializing in sports betting, iGaming, and gambling regulatory compliance in the U.S. and abroad, has launched Playbook, the game-changing technology platform that provides the most comprehensive overview ever produced of the U.S. sports betting, iGaming, daily fantasy sports, and iLottery regulatory environment, updated in real time as information changes state-by-state. Playbook provides users with one-click access to state document libraries which are carefully curated, managed, and automatically updated to ensure all data is as current as the information published on all state regulatory agency repositories.
Playbook will be offered in three tiers with the basic level available free-of-charge to all users who register for an account. Playbook+ offers unique features, including state homepages, Versus (a quick view cross-jurisdictional comparison tool), alerts, built-in statute and regulation definitions (readily accessed by hovering over key terms), embedded annotation functionality, and team collaboration. PlaybookAI adds cross-state search functionality, leveraging Odds On Compliance’s proprietary natural language and text classification artificial intelligence model.
“I am delighted to share this one-of-a-kind technology, Playbook, with our clients and the industry as a whole,” commented Eric Frank, CEO and Co-Founder of Odds On Compliance. “Playbook is a game changer. It fuses cutting-edge technology with continuously updated information about the ever-evolving regulatory and compliance landscape in the gaming space. We believe that Playbook will be the industry’s go-to resource for effectively and more efficiently navigating these complex regulatory frameworks in the U.S., and eventually abroad. As experts in the gaming field, who work in and rely on these documents day in and day out, the Odds On team knows first-hand how crucial it is for businesses entering or operating in this space to have quick, easy access to the most accurate and up-to-date information. With the goal of providing the most advanced tools to support and enhance tremendous growth already happening in the gaming industry, we created Playbook.”

Interested parties can request early access by completing the “request access” form at oddsoncompliance.com. In May, Playbook will be accessible to all members of the industry seeking a one-stop source for the most comprehensive, up-to-date regulatory information across the U.S.

The Swedish gaming giant confirms its entry into another regulated market, with its industry-leading portfolio of games set to launch in Alberta.
Play’n GO, one of the world’s leading casino entertainment providers, has been granted a licence to supply online gaming content in the Canadian province of Alberta, marking another milestone in the company’s expansion across regulated North American markets.
The licence, awarded by the Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis Commission (AGLC), allows the company to offer its portfolio of premium online casino titles to licensed operators in the province ahead of Alberta’s planned market launch later this year.
Alberta represents an important new regulated opportunity within Canada, complementing Play’n GO’s established presence in Ontario and Quebec, while reinforcing the company’s commitment to operating exclusively in regulated jurisdictions.
Magnus Olsson said: “Being granted a licence in Alberta is another important step in our North American growth journey and further strengthens our presence in Canada.

As part of its market entry preparations, the company has aligned its technology and game portfolio with Alberta’s regulatory standards and requirements, with an initial batch of titles already undergoing certification to ensure launch readiness.
