2021’s most award-winning provider ready to boost Netherland’s debut as regulated jurisdiction

Relax Gaming, the igaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, has announced its launch in the Netherlands as the provider looks to further establish its leading European position.

The news sees Relax brings its 24 studio partners, via its Powered By Relax and Silver Bullet programmes, as well as its market-leading platform suite, to the Dutch market following its full certification to the standards set by the country’s regulator, the Netherlands Gambling Authority (NGA).

Testament to Relax’s outstanding success this year, the agility of its technical set up and its commitment to being present in new markets has ensured that Relax’s impressive portfolio and a variety of suppliers from its aggregation programmes are already active in the market.

Having completed the regulatory and certification requirements so quickly, the provider’s expertise and focus on expanding in highly regulated markets showcases its constant commitment to strong safeguards around integrity and player protection, which it upholds to the highest standards.

Following successful audit processes with multiple operators now licensed by the Dutch Gaming Authority, Relax content was live in the Netherlands at the first opportunity. Each operator is set to be announced shortly.

Commenting on its entrance, Alexia Smilovic-Ronde, Chief Regulatory Officer at Relax Gaming, said: “We see this latest success as a key milestone for both Relax Gaming and our highly valued partners as the market regulates and starts to grow.

“We believe this will be a highly valuable and successful market entry for all associated parties as we provide our best-in-class product suite and unique concepts to players in the Netherlands. This is a continuation of the drive that underpins our hard-earned reputation for driving differentiation in the industry.”

Now regarded as one of the industry’s leading aggregators, Relax Gaming provides its partners with upwards of 2,000 online casino games.

This encompasses a wide range of titles, from its high performing proprietary slots to an expansive library of content from hand-picked third-party studios via its partnership programmes.

In tandem with its continued success, the leading supplier secured the award for Unique Gaming Company of the Year at the UK’s International Gaming Awards in September.

This was preceded by four EGR B2B Awards in July, including Innovation in Mobile and Casino Software Provider, as well as two CasinoBeats Developer Awards at the SBC Summit in Malta.

The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) has observed a pattern of websites impersonating MGA-licensed operators and misleading consumers into believing that they are licensed, regulated or otherwise authorised by the Authority in accordance with the Gaming Act (Chapter 583 of the Laws of Malta) and the regulatory instruments issued thereunder.

In light of this, the MGA published a list of three websites impersonating licensed operators. The websites are:

• www.manekicasino.bet

• www.dragonaracasino.uk.com

• www.slot-hunter.at

“The MGA is hereby declaring that it has no connection with the above listed URLs and any other website, platform and/or entity impersonating the Authority and/or MGA-licensed operators. Any reference to the MGA and/or gaming licence/s said to be issued by it, as stated on these domains, are false and misleading,” the MGA noted.

“The MGA would like to remind consumers not to utilise services provided by an entity unless they have ascertained that the entity in question is duly authorised to provide such services by the Authority. Whereas MGA-licensed operators comply with strict legal requirements in the interest of consumers, the activities of unlicensed entities are unregulated, and do not provide the necessary safeguards delineated by virtue of the gaming regulatory framework, making transactions with such entities risky for consumers.”

Supplier secures AGLC registration and extends its Canadian footprint beyond Ontario, where it has been live since 2022.

Greentube has gone live in Alberta on the day the province opened as a newly regulated iGaming market, marking the supplier’s first launch in the jurisdiction.

The NOVOMATIC Digital Gaming and Entertainment division said it completed regulatory and technical due diligence and secured registration with the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) commission to operate in the province. Alberta becomes only the second Canadian province to regulate iGaming after Ontario, with the new framework replacing the monopoly previously held by Play Alberta.

The Alberta launch builds on Greentube’s existing Canadian footprint. The company has been live in Ontario since 2022 and described the Alberta debut as part of its wider North American expansion strategy.

Greentube said Alberta players will initially have access to a curated set of titles including Piggy Prizes Wand of Riches 2, Rumble Riches Haulin’ Gold and Firecracker Frenzy Money Toad, as well as Silver Lux Big Win Spinner, Starlight Jackpots Captain’s Catch and Charming Lady’s Boom.

David Bolas, Commercial Director at Greentube, said: “Going live in Alberta on the day the market opens is an important step for Greentube and reflects the strong momentum we are seeing in Canada.

“We welcome the opportunity a new jurisdiction offers and look forward to working with locally licensed operators to introduce our established offering to players in Alberta. With a balanced line-up of new releases and proven performers, we are well placed to offer a compelling experience in the province and support our long-term ambitions in the region.”
