SoftGamings to expand its services to Greece
Last year regulatory changes entered into force in Greece, allowing only licensed providers to operate on the Greek market. Greece’s Parliament had passed the Gambling Regulations in October 2019 and its Ministry of Finance had submitted the draft of regulations with amendments and controls to the European Commission for approval, however by the end of last year Hellenic Gaming Commission (HGC) started to accept applications for licenses.
In order to expand its services to Greece, SoftGamings has submitted an application for a Manufacturer A1 Suitability license.
As a result of this submission, the company will be able to offer its products and services to all gaming operators that are licensed and offering their services to players in Greece. SoftGamings considers Greece as an exciting market.
Here’s what Irina Sazonova, Director of Partnerships at SoftGamings, had to say about the licensing process by HGC.
“Starting the licensing procedure with the HGC is a huge achievement for SoftGamings. After all, the Hellenic Gaming Commission is a highly-regarded regulator with strict standards. Its members make sure that all gambling activities in Greece are well-organized and carried out with maximum transparency and fairness. Moreover, the HGC ensures that all illegal gambling operations are prevented, providing maximum safety to operators and consumers alike. SoftGamings shares the high standards of HGC and we strive to reaffirm the quality of our products and services. The Greek market has experienced significant growth in online gaming over recent years, and becoming a licensed Greek provider would be a valuable milestone to open up new opportunities. Our company is hoping to get the Greece license and look forward to entering the Greek market.”

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.
