iSoftBet secures Greece supplier licence
Award-winning content and platform provider to supply multiple tier one operators ahead of summer 2021 opening – iSoftBet’s 20th regulated market
iSoftBet, the leading online games supplier and content aggregator, has been granted a licence to supply its award-winning content and GAP aggregation platform to regulated operators in the newly regulating Greek market by the Hellenic Gaming Commission (HGC).
The A2 Greek licence will enable iSoftBet to offer both its proprietary and third-party content to Greek licensed operators such as Betsson, Stoiximan, Interwetten, and GVC via its GAP platform starting this summer.
The future Greek opening will mean iSoftBet will be active in 20 regulated markets with the supplier providing some of the largest operators with top performing casino games and the quickest route to market via its GAP aggregation platform.
The company has a long track record of compliance excellence winning the Compliance Outstanding Achievement Award at the 2020 VIXIO Global Regulatory Awards, the most prestigious compliance accolade in the gaming industry.
iSoftBet was named the winner in the category following an outstanding 12 month focus on becoming one of the most compliant and successful suppliers across established and newly regulated markets.
Its compliance team has been at the forefront of managing a raft of changes to existing legislation including finalising certification in multiple countries such as Sweden, Switzerland, Malta, and Colombia in the last two years, a huge accomplishment with only a few suppliers achieving this level of global compliance excellence and coverage.
Mark Halstead, Compliance Manager at iSoftBet said: “We are very proud to be awarded our Greek license and will look to continue improving our compliance programme further with new and upcoming marketing requirements for our games as these are announced.
“This is another landmark moment for the business showing how ahead of the curve we are in entering the latest regulated and regulating markets with the biggest brands. We’re looking forward to launching and showcasing our content and platform power in Greece.”
Federica Faggiano, Chief Commercial Officer at iSoftBet said: “We continue to lead the way in compliance excellence, and I’m delighted we will soon be able to offer all our market-leading products in Greece, a market that has huge growth potential.
“Securing licences in emerging markets such as Greece will enable us to do what we do best; offer leading operators the full spectrum of our high-quality proprietary and third-party content, and both launch and accelerate their local brand presence with maximum speed and efficiency via our proven GAP platform and innovative player engagement tools.”
