BetGames secures additional set of UKGC licences
New UK approvals see delivery of BetGames’ latest portfolio to major operator groups.
Innovative live dealer and betting games studio BetGames is ready to greatly expand its operations in the UK following multiple new licences issued by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC).
This latest set of UKGC approvals enables BetGames to provide facilities for betting on real events (Betting Host for Real Events), as well as for virtual events (Betting Host for Virtual events). This comes as an addition to BetGames’ existing Gambling Software and Casino Host licences for the UK.
Thanks to these latest certifications, BetGames will now be able to deliver its current games portfolio to all licensed UK operators, with initial launches to be announced shortly.
The first new product hitting the UK market will be BetGames’ highly sought-after Twain Sport – delivering short-form, basketball and football action 24/7.
Unique to the betting industry, Twain Sport has been designed to be the perfect sporting complement for traditional iGaming, offering a high-turnover schedule that boosts both engagement and incremental revenue for operators.
Available in both football and basketball formats, professional athletes compete in one-on-one challenges, with non-stop 60-second matches available every two minutes daily.
Totalling 1,440 matches per day and 43,200 per month, Twain Sport is targeted towards millennial and Gen-Z demographics, in a low-staking, regulation-friendly format.
Commenting on the latest UKGC licences, BetGames’ CEO Andreas Koeberl said: “Our latest UK approvals are going to be an absolute game-changer for us. Live since October 2022, Twain Sport has already proven a resounding success having been deployed with 45 operators globally in just six months, as well as 20 more contracts currently under negotiation.
”Our mission at BetGames has always been to offer unique products for the iGaming industry. With Twain Sport, we have something truly special for the UK market – the first-of-its-kind high-turnover sporting action that will be the perfect cross-sell for sports betting and casino fans. Perfect for the new low-staking regulatory environment in the UK, we can’t wait to see how it performs!”

BETER secures Kentucky license, bringing Setka Cup and ESportsBattle to ninth US state
BETER has secured a license in Kentucky, expanding the availability of its Setka Cup table tennis and ESportsBattle betting content to a ninth US state. The approval was granted by the Kentucky Horse Racing and Gaming (KHRG), the state regulator.
The Kentucky approval adds to BETER’s existing US footprint in Florida, New Jersey, Colorado, Arizona, Indiana, Iowa, North Carolina, and Illinois. The license allows BETER to supply operators in Kentucky with live data and live streams from Setka Cup and ESportsBattle tournaments.
BETER said the content is already live for Kentucky bettors through bet365, which it described as a long-standing operator partner.
Chuck Robinson, CRO at BETER, said: “Kentucky is a state with a deep sporting heritage, and we’re excited to bring our exclusive Setka Cup and ESportsBattle content to operators and bettors there. Reaching nine US states is an important milestone that reflects the growing appetite for fast-betting content across the country.
“The US market is evolving rapidly, and players are increasingly seeking round-the-clock, high-quality betting experiences. BETER is built to meet that demand, and each new state we enter strengthens our position as the go-to provider of fast-betting content worldwide.”
Valeriia Tarchynska, Chief Legal Officer at BETER, added: “Receiving both approval and license is the result of sustained and meticulous regulatory and compliance work by our team. The US licensing landscape is uniquely complex, with each state operating under its own distinct framework, and we take great pride in meeting those requirements wherever we operate.
“With nine states now approved, the US continues to be a cornerstone of BETER’s global strategy. We are actively pursuing approvals in additional key states and remain fully committed to expanding our footprint across the country and beyond.”
