1X2 Network secures Romania licence
Leading content developer and aggregator continues to deploy regulated market expansion plan with latest certification with additional operators ready and waiting to integrate its games
1X2 Network, the award-winning online casino content provider and aggregator, has been granted its own licence from Romania’s National Gambling Office with a number of operators already lined up to add its games to their lobbies.
The licence means that all casino and sportsbook brands active in the market will be able to offer their players content from the developer’s 1X2gaming and Iron Dog Studio subsidiaries. This includes Megaways™ Jack, 1 Million Megaways™ BC, Blazing 777 and Classic Fruits.
Operators will also be able to leverage 1X2 Network’s pioneering Branded Megaways™ concept, allowing them to quickly and cost-effectively launch Megaways™ slots that incorporate their own branding and logos to deliver a unique and thrilling player experience.
Securing a licence in Romania forms part of 1X2 Network’s wider strategy to provide its content in core regulated markets in Europe and beyond. The provider already holds certifications in UK, Malta, Gibraltar, IOM, Sweden, Spain, Denmark, Italy and Greece.
Christopher Reid, Corporate Manager at 1X2 Network, said: “Securing certifications in key international markets is the driving force behind our growth strategy and that is why we wanted to obtain our own licence in Romania.
“This is a market where we have already gained traction with some of the biggest brands and now that we have been awarded our own permit will be able to grow our client base in the country.
“Our games have proved to be hugely popular with players in Romania thanks to their bold design, authentic sound and thrilling gameplay and we look forward to seeing them land in the lobbies of more casinos and sportsbooks over the coming months.”
