Swintt’s certified games ready to enter the Greek market
In-demand software provider adds a 12th regulated market to its operations as full portfolio of games receives approval to launch from Hellenic Gaming Commission
Having vowed to enter three new markets over the course of 2025, hotshot software provider Swintt has already gone some way to delivering on this promise with the announcement that its games are now certified for release in Greece.
With the Hellenic Gaming Commission (HGC) giving the studio the greenlight to provide Swintt titles to licensed platforms in the country, Greece becomes the 12th regulated market in which Swintt is approved to operate.
Following hot on the heels of similar approvals in the UK and Ontario last year, acquiring game certification for the Greek market will enable the provider to connect with even more players and operators across Europe and is merely the beginning of Swintt’s plans this year.
The team at Swintt also has its eyes on the Italian and Swiss markets, further expanding its outreach and demonstrating the studio’s commitment to ensuring that its content reaches a broad cross-section of customers in numerous global regulated markets.
Now that it has secured certification for Greece, Swintt will prepare its catalogue of games to ensure that they’re primed and ready for release in the country – and the provider is already working hard behind the scenes to identify potential partnership deals that will bring its line-up to market.
Building on this momentum, the Elysium Studios driven by Swintt catalogue of games is expected to be a hit in the Greek market, thanks to its cutting-edge graphics and innovative features with a focus on delivering immersive experiences that cater to their player preferences
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “At Swintt, we’ve always been clear about our ambitions to expand, but it’s important for us to do that in a strategic way and only target regulated markets that make commercial sense to us – and Greece definitely fits this bill.
“As the 12th regulated market where our games are certified for launch, we’re very happy to have been granted approval by the HGC and are already hard at work trying to find suitable partners to host our titles in the country. I’m very excited about the possibilities the Greek market will hold for Swintt and am already looking forward to getting our portfolio out to a wide new audience.”

UK High Court Rejects Legal Challenges Relating to the National Lottery Licence
On 17 April 2026, the UK High Court rejected in full the claims brought by The New Lottery Company Limited (TNLC) and Northern & Shell PLC (N&S) against the Gambling Commission in relation to the award of the Fourth National Lottery Licence.
In summary, the claims alleged that the Gambling Commission had wrongly awarded the Fourth National Lottery Licence to Allwyn, and that instead, TNLC should have won the competition. The claims also alleged that the Gambling Commission and Allwyn had entered into impermissible modifications to the Licence arrangements following the competition.
The lengthy trial of the claims took place in the High Court before Mrs Justice Joanna Smith between 9 October and 2 December 2025, with an additional day on 13 January 2026.
The High Court has now ruled in favour of the Gambling Commission on all of the claims, rejecting the allegations which had been made.
This is an important judgment for the future of The National Lottery. This judgment makes clear that the Gambling Commission ran a fair and robust competition to award the Fourth National Lottery Licence, and that none of the contested changes to the Licence, in the course of its implementation, were substantial or contrary to the relevant procurement regulations.
The judgment gives resounding support to Good Causes by enabling Allwyn, with oversight from the Commission, to continue with their plans of investment in The National Lottery without further distraction.
The National Lottery is one of the world’s largest lotteries and since launching in 1994, National Lottery players have collectively raised more than £52 billion for more than 670,000 Good Causes across the UK, transforming lives and contributing to the arts, sport, heritage and communities.
