Casino games specialist to join one of the leading online gaming markets with several partnerships lined up
Gaming Corps, a publicly-listed game development company based in Sweden will bring its premium suite of games to one of the world’s biggest regulated online gaming markets, after being granted a licence by the Gambling Commission to operate in the United Kingdom.
In the latest significant development for the supplier, Gaming Corps will roll out its full games suite with a number of operators, including tier one partners, with partnerships set to be confirmed in due course.
Players in the UK will be able to enjoy the full range of Gaming Corps titles, including Crash, Mine, Table and Slot games, as well as a certified Plinko. Gaming Corps’ recent successes Wild Woof, Raging Zeus Mines, Lobster Hotpot and Piggy Smash will all be available, along with Gaming Corps’ renowned game series such as Jet Lucky and Coin Miner.
This follows several market entries made by Gaming Corps in the last year, after receiving licences in Sweden, Greece and MGA along with certification in Gibraltar, Netherlands, Greece, Estonia, Croatia, Italy, Portugal, Romania, Bulgaria and Latvia.
Juha Kauppinen, CEO of Gaming Corps: “This is a hugely momentous advancement for Gaming Corps, and we are extremely excited to enter one of the largest regulated online gaming markets in the world. We want to make the most of this fantastic opportunity and I very much look forward to offering our first-class gaming experiences to players in the UK.
“We have grown exponentially as a business in a short space of time as a result of our endeavour to provide thrilling, exhilarating content, and as we have shown with our launches in a range of markets in the last year, we are continuing to bring our games suite to more and more players. We plan to continue growing in the coming years as we consistently update our games portfolio and make our offering even stronger.
“This is just the first step for us in the UK, and I can’t wait to make further announcements about our plans and partnerships in this market in due course.”
Approval from the Swedish Gambling Authority lets the studio supply content to licensed operators in Sweden.
Wicked Games has obtained a Swedish B2B gaming licence, clearing the studio to supply its content to licensed operators in Sweden.
The licence was granted by the Swedish Gambling Authority (Spelinspektionen) and expands Wicked Games’ regulated market footprint in Europe.
“Securing our Swedish licence is a strong validation of the compliance standards and technical readiness behind our business,” said Khadija El Abi, Head of Partnerships at Wicked Games. “Sweden is an important market for us, and this approval allows us to support licensed operators there with content built to stand out in competitive lobbies.”
Wicked Games said the approval supports its broader strategy to grow in regulated jurisdictions and make its content available to more operator partners in key markets.

Businesses can now obtain licenses for organising and conducting gambling activities online through the Diia portal, without paper documents or in-person interaction with the state, according to a statement by PlayCity, the state agency regulating Ukraine’s gambling and lottery market.
According to the release, applications can be generated in the Diia electronic cabinet and signed using a qualified electronic signature (QES). Some data will be automatically retrieved from state registries, including information about the company, its owners and beneficiaries.
PlayCity will review submitted applications, and applicants will receive decisions on license issuance or refusal online via Diia.
Companies will be able to apply for licenses covering casino operations, bookmaking, slot machine halls, online poker, as well as B2B services in the gambling sector.
Acting Minister of Digital Transformation Oleksandr Borniakov said on Telegram that the ministry, together with PlayCity, has also prepared amendments to sector-specific legislation aimed at strengthening entry checks for companies in terms of reputation, integrity, ownership structure and absence of ties to the aggressor state.
“Our goal is to create a transparent and controlled market in which digital tools ensure both convenience for businesses and trust in the state,” Borniakov said.

Amusnet is entering the North American market after securing a Gaming-Related Supplier–Manufacturer Registration from the AGCO in Ontario, Canada, marking a strategic milestone in the group’s global expansion.
Licensing grants Amusnet access to Ontario’s regulated iGaming market, which is one of the most established and fast-growing jurisdictions in North America, known for its robust regulatory framework and strong long-term growth potential.
It will allow the supplier to offer online gaming content to licensed operators in the province, officially establishing its presence in the region. Amusnet will initially roll out its iGaming portfolio, with the option to expand into Land-based solutions at a later stage.
Ontario’s regulatory framework emphasises strict compliance, ensuring that all suppliers adhere to high standards in technology, security and player protection. This makes Ontario a key benchmark market for companies entering North America. The new registration further confirms that Amusnet has successfully met these rigorous requirements for integrity and regulatory compliance, enabling it to distribute its content across the province.
“Securing the AGCO licence is an important milestone for Amusnet and reflects our long-term commitment to operating in fully regulated markets. Our entry into Ontario represents a key strategic step into North America, which is a high-priority region with strong long-term growth potential. We look forward to partnering with local operators and building a sustainable presence in the market,” said Ivo Georgiev, CEO of Amusnet.
