ORYX iGaming Platform Launches Newly Licensed JACKS.NL in the Netherlands
Full iGaming platform solution from Bragg Gaming Group company ORYX including player account management and content live with new online brand for Dutch casino group JVH
ORYX Gaming, a Bragg Gaming Group company, has extended its reach as a leading supplier to the Dutch iGaming market with the launch today of its player account management (PAM) iGaming platform and content with JACKS.NL, the online brand of Jack’s Casino.
The new site was launched after the Dutch Gaming Authority granted a license to JOI Gaming, part of the JVH Gaming & Entertainment Group, to operate JACKS.NL in the recently regulated online casino market in the Netherlands.
JVH is the market-leading casino operator in the Netherlands, with 85 properties in the country and is best known for its Jack’s Casino brand. The group was founded by entrepreneur Jac van Ham in the Dutch city of Tilburg in 1958.
The ORYX PAM features a comprehensive set of proprietary tools including player and payments management, data services, customer relationship management (CRM) and promotions, bonuses and rewards, anti-fraud and rules engines, compliance, analytics, reporting and a content management system (CMS).
The ORYX CMS supports exclusive games on JACKS.NL including titles from GAMOMAT, Peter & Sons and ORYX’s own in-house studios, as well as a full sportsbook offering supplied by Kambi, popular live casino games from Evolution Gaming and over 10,000 aggregated casino titles from a range of top studios.
Chris Looney, Chief Commercial Officer at Bragg said: “We congratulate JACKS.NL, a renowned and reputed Dutch brand, for now being live, and we are delighted to be its partner, powering its strong offering with our iGaming platform solution. We entered into this agreement with JVH in the fourth quarter of 2020, and we are very excited to now be operating.
“It has been an exciting time since the much anticipated Dutch online market opened in October, and this partnership is a cornerstone of ORYX’s future growth in the region which is of great strategic significance for the company.”
Eric Olders, Chief Executive Officer at JVH, said: “We’ve been working towards the launch of JACKS.NL in the regulated Dutch market for a long time so it’s a landmark achievement for us to now be able to provide our customers with a premium online sports and casino offering.
“In ORYX, we have a strong technical partner with a fantastic platform and its substantial content portfolio enables us to offer the most sought after games in the market and we look forward to a long relationship and achieving great things together.”

Kazakhstan Orders Telecom Providers to Block Illegal Online Casino Payments via Mobile Balances
Kazakhstan authorities have moved to tighten controls on illegal online gambling payments after uncovering schemes that use mobile phone balances to fund unlicensed casino activity.
The Financial Monitoring Agency (FMA) issued instructions to telecom providers to strengthen monitoring and introduce systems to detect and block suspicious transactions.
According to the FMA, mobile operators including Tele2, Altel, Beeline, Kcell and Activ were called to a working meeting where regulators demonstrated how illicit payment flows to online casinos are being processed.
To verify the issue, the FMA carried out test purchases across 10 illegal online casino websites using services from all major mobile operators. The tests confirmed that payments via mobile balances were possible.
The agency stated that the goal is to cut off financial access to illegal operators and reduce public exposure to unregulated platforms. Further enforcement actions are expected as monitoring continues.
Meanwhile, Kazakhstan is preparing to significantly tighten rules on the promotion of illegal gambling. A group of senators is advancing an initiative to introduce criminal penalties for influencers who advertise online casinos and organise “giveaways.”
In related developments, a Kazakhstani influencer has recently been arrested in Vietnam on suspicion of running an illegal gambling operation.
Furthermore, the country is also restricting citizens’ access to legal gambling options, indicating a broader anti-gambling stance towards locals while still pursuing gambling tourism.
Lawmakers introduced rules restricting access to casinos, slot machine halls and betting venues in several regions to foreign nationals only. The changes will take effect on 17 May.
In March, President Tokayev signed a law establishing four new gambling zones for foreigners in the country.
