Game On: High 5 Games Receives Gaming-Related Supplier License in Ontario
Online slot maker ready to entertain players in province of nearly 15 million
High 5 Games announced that it has been granted a Gaming-Related Supplier License by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). The license authorizes High 5 Games to offer its games to AGCO-approved operators serving the province of Ontario.
Tony Singer, CEO of High 5 Games, commented: “Big things are happening in Ontario, and we couldn’t be more excited to be a major part of the newly regulated iGaming market. For several decades, players in Ontario have been enjoying our games at land-based casinos across the province. We can’t wait to bring those games online and entertain players in a whole new environment.”
Ontario’s iGaming market officially opens to licensed operators on April 4th, 2022. As one of the first licensed suppliers, High 5 Games is ready to hit the ground running with operators hoping to capitalize on the new frontier in North America’s iGaming sector.
While new to Ontario iGaming, High 5 Games already has a major presence in Canada. In February 2022, High 5 Games launched several titles on Lotto Quebec’s online casino platform. The online slot company also has several partnerships in many regulated markets south of the border, including New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Connecticut. The company plans to extend those partnerships in Ontario and join forces with new operators as the market expands and grows.
High 5 Games is the industry’s largest independent casino games provider. With over 200 games in its slot library, the company is focused on developing content for the online, mobile, land-based, and social markets. High 5 Games also offers its own proprietary casino platform called Opus, which allows operators to integrate games from other suppliers.
