Stakelogic granted Greek gaming license
In-demand software providers expand their global reach after regulators give the green light to operate in Greece
Stakelogic, the sought-after software studio behind fan favourite slots such as Mystery Drop and Extreme Megaways, have announced they’ll now be able to share their innovative catalogue of games with a brand-new audience after being granted a Greek gaming license.
Having already successfully passed the rigorous security checks of regulatory bodies such as the Malta Gaming Authority, Romania’s ONJN and the notoriously thorough UK Gaming Commission, Stakelogic can now add the Hellenic Gaming Commission to their growing list of approvals as the group gave them the green light to supply their full suite of slots and live games to online operators in Greece.
The news means that Stakelogic will now be able to offer their games to Greek players via any licensed casino in the country, enabling them to share their signature range of Super StakeTM titles in the market for the first time. With these games offering players the chance to raise their starting stake in exchange for perks such as extra scatters and bonus features, they’re sure to prove a popular addition.
With the Hellenic Gaming Commission opening up the application process for new online gaming licenses in October of last year, Stakelogic have moved quickly to gain the proper certification for Greece. Just as they did in the Ukrainian market earlier in the year, the popular providers were able to secure a suppliers license relatively early, enabling them to hit the ground running in the country.
The decision by Stakelogic to acquire a Greek gaming license to go alongside the others they hold in Malta, Romania, the UK and the Ukraine further emphasises the studio’s commitment to expanding its global reach and ensuring as many players as possible get to try out its exciting collection of games.
Stephan van den Oetelaar, CEO at Stakelogic, said: “Having thoroughly reviewed our business offering, we’re delighted the Hellenic Gaming Commission has awarded us a Greek gaming license and we’re very much looking forward to sharing our product with players in the country for the first time.
“The decision to move into Greece is reflective of Stakelogic’s wider strategy to expand its global reach and offer its premier collection of slots and live casino games in new markets the world over. Now licensed in five major gaming jurisdictions, we’ve proved once more that Stakelogic is a brand players can trust to deliver a high quality gaming experience that’s 100% regulated, licensed and secure.”
