R. Franco Digital celebrates MGA licence
Leading Spanish supplier gains valuable Malta accreditation
R. Franco Digital, R. Franco Group’s digital division, has landed the highly prized acquisition of its Critical Gaming Supply Licence from the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA).
The licence caps a period of growth and development right across Europe for the rapidly growing provider, which has recently expanded its content offering with multiple tier one operators across regulated markets.
Franco’s extensive catalogue of innovative and engaging slots includes Time Lab, Fortune Jungle and Book of Fruits, with the Spanish supplier also boasting a wealth of innovative, polished new games currently in development.
In addition, its newly launched omni-channel IRIS 4.0 platform is integrated with over 40 providers across sports and casino, including R. Franco Digital’s in-house games.
Now armed with the MGA licence, R. Franco Digital can provide its content to Malta-based operators, with a number of tier-one brands lined up for new partnerships in the coming months.
The certification also acts to further expand the footprint of R. Franco Digital as it continues to expand its presence in regulated markets globally.
Commenting on its acquisition, Mario Benito Campo, Commercial Director at R. Franco Digital said: “From the Commercial and Operations Department of R. Franco Digital, we are very proud to have obtained our Critical Gaming Supply Licence from the Malta Gaming Authority. This milestone is a great opportunity to expand our markets.”

Zitro Digital has announced its entry into the newly regulated Brazilian iGaming market. With deep roots in Brazil, Zitro Digital is to bring its portfolio of in-house content to local players, marking a new chapter in the company’s long-standing connection with the country.

The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) has announced changes aimed at increasing consumer control over deposit limits and greater transparency of customer funds protection by operators.
A further change to the Commission’s Licence Conditions and Codes of Practice (LCCP) will also pave the way for implementation of Government’s upcoming statutory levy.
The changes follow a consultation and are consistent with the 2023 White Paper High stakes: gambling reform for the digital age.
New rules will give consumers more effective ways to manage their gambling by making it easier to set and maintain deposit limits on their online accounts, in ways that work best for them.
From 31 October 2025 all gambling businesses must prompt their customers to set a financial limit before they make their first deposit and make it easy to review and alter this limit at any point after.
These rules will take good practice already offered by some operators and expand that so customers can expect the same standards across the industry.
Gambling businesses will also be required to remind consumers every six months to review their account and transaction information – this will help consumers consider if they want to change existing, or set new, deposit limits.
Operators who hold customer funds must set out in the terms and conditions whether these are protected in the event of insolvency, the level of such protection and the method by which this is achieved. They must also make this information available at the point at which a customer first deposits money.
The Commission’s LCCP currently requires operators to make annual financial contributions to a list of research, prevention and treatment organisations. This requirement will be removed close to the introduction of the government’s statutory levy (opens in new tab) (expected to come into force on 6 April 2025) as it will become obsolete.
“These changes illustrate our commitment to ensuring gambling is fair and open by improving consumer empowerment and choice. These changes will help consumers decide on deposit limits, enable them to keep track of their spending and ensure they are fully aware of what happens to their funds should an operator become insolvent. We will now continue our work to deliver our remaining White Paper commitments, including our programme of evaluation,” Tim Miller, Commission Executive Director for research and policy, said.
