SoftGamings Is E-Class Licensed by the Belgian Gambling Commission

The Belgian Gambling Commission (BGC) has granted a license to SoftGamings brand, a leading provider and aggregator of casino software.
This milestone expands SoftGamings’ influence in the global market. It reflects the company’s desire to develop and improve its products constantly. SoftGamings’ award-winning software has already proven to meet the highest industry standards in leading jurisdictions.
The Belgian E-Class License enables SoftGamings to offer its branded services to Belgian-licensed operators. The obtained license applies to activities related to the B2B sale, lease, supply, import and export of gambling products. This opens the door to a one-stop service for integrating API games from prestigious vendors in a short time. We’re currently expanding our activities throughout the regulated Belgian market and making our products available to all operators licensed by BGC and all those who plan to obtain one.
What are the benefits of the E-Class License? It grants the rights to supply products and services to licensed B2C operators in Belgium, opening up opportunities for them to:
Use SoftGamings’ platform with back-office tools, including third-party software integrated into the Platform;
Implement additional analytical and marketing software as a stand-alone product allowing integration with the Platform;
Use support and maintenance services in relation to the Platform and licensed software.
By collaborating with SoftGamings’ brand companies, Belgian companies with B2C licenses will be able to integrate providers of high-quality gaming content for testing easily. The streamlined process replaces the need for multiple integrations and offers a convenient one-stop-shop approach.
Belgium legalised gambling in 1999, and online gambling followed in 2002. As a result, the market is known as one of the best-regulated gambling zones.
Anna Lalina, Head of Partnerships at SoftGamings, said: “The SoftGamings brand has received a Belgian E-Class License, adding to the collection of existing licenses from Malta, Greece, Romania, the Isle of Man, and others. These achievements are in line with SoftGamings’ strategy and mission to expand our continued presence in the Western European markets. From now on, offers and requests for cooperation from Belgian operators will be met. They’ll receive ready-made casino solutions and other software solutions for this market.
Belgian licensing was an important development for the SoftGamings brand. This milestone laid a solid foundation, paved the way for new solutions in the field of online gambling, and increased competitiveness in mature markets like Belgium.”

MGCB Targets 11 Illegal Online Casinos Operating Without Licenses

The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has issued cease-and-desist orders to 11 illegal online gambling operators found to be targeting Michigan residents without proper state authorization. These unlicensed casinos—some based offshore, others operating from undisclosed or domestic locations—pose serious risks to consumers by skirting Michigan’s regulated gaming laws.
The casinos named in the enforcement action include the following:
Club Player Casino
7 Bets Casino
NinBet Casino
Cherry Jackpot Casino
PitBet
SlotsNBets
Bookmaker.eu
Wild Vegas Casino
VIP Slots Casino
Prism Casino
ABC Islands Casino
“These sites are operating illegally and without proper oversight, putting Michigan players at risk. We’re committed to shutting down unlicensed gambling operations and protecting the public from deceptive practices, unfair play, and financial harm,” said Henry Williams, Executive Director of the Michigan Gaming Control Board.
The named operators have been found to accept wagers from Michigan residents via a range of payment methods—including credit cards, digital wallets, and cryptocurrencies. Players may be subjected to questionable practices, such as the withholding of winnings, unrealistic wagering requirements, and denial of withdrawals.
In addition to financial concerns, these illegal operators are not required to follow the same rigorous data protection standards that are mandated in Michigan’s regulated market. As a result, players’ personal and financial information may be highly vulnerable when shared with these unlicensed platforms, increasing the risk of data breaches, identity theft, and other cybercrimes.
The MGCB has formally notified all 11 operators to immediately stop offering gambling services to Michigan residents. They have been given 14 days to comply. Continued violations may result in further enforcement, including collaboration with the Michigan Attorney General’s Office to pursue legal action.
“This should serve as a strong warning to illegal operators: Michigan does not tolerate unauthorized gambling activity. We will continue our relentless pursuit of actively identifying and disrupting these operations,” Williams said.
“We want every patron in Michigan to have access to a fair and secure gambling experience. By eliminating illegal operators, we’re helping ensure the public can enjoy gaming without fear of fraud or abuse,” Williams added.
