Bede Gaming receives top level supplier certification from WLA
World Lottery Association approves innovative software provider with certification to Security Control Standard Level 2
Online gaming and lottery software provider Bede Gaming has taken another important step on its mission to provide market-leading and secure platform software to its customers, with the announcement that it has acquired World Lottery Association (WLA) Security Control Standard (WLA-SCS) Level 2.
The WLA is a highly respected organisation within the global lottery and sports betting industry, and its Security Control Standard is the only internationally recognised standard for lottery and sports betting operators, and their suppliers. The standard aims to assist WLA members to achieve a level of security control that is aligned with generally accepted best practices. Though Bede has long adhered to this wide range of criteria, receiving official confirmation of WLA-SCS Level 2 marks formal recognition.
As an associate member of the WLA and an active iGaming platform provider in the North American market, Bede successfully completed the certification process in the previous quarter and is thrilled to have achieved the highest level of certification – WLA-SCS Level 2. Successfully gaining this certification demonstrates the high quality of product and service provided to its partners. It also confirms the strong security controls and protocols Bede has in place, all of which are approved by accredited industry standards.
As such, Bede is incredibly proud of the outcome of the recent audit, with Head of Risk & Compliance Gerrard Thompson being quick to acknowledge the effort and commitment of the team in achieving the new certification.
Thompson said: “Although Bede Gaming has long upheld the strict industry standards outlined by the WLA, gaining the organisation’s highest available certification is great validation of our high standards of operation and robust security measures.
“With WLA-SCS Level 2 now in place, I’d like to extend my sincere thanks for the hard work and effort of everyone in the Bede team for helping us achieve this important industry milestone.”

Global Gaming Solutions has welcomed a statement from the Isle of Man Government reaffirming its commitment to the iGaming sector. It comes after a year that tested confidence across parts of the industry.
The Isle of Man Government highlighted its strong iGaming history in a statement released today by the Department for Enterprise. The Island’s reputation comes from robust regulation, political and economic stability, and close working between Government, regulators and industry. The statement reaffirmed that iGaming remains a core and enduring part of the Isle of Man’s economy, now and into the future.
The Chief Minister said the Government has strengthened its understanding of risk in response to a more complex global environment. He added that additional resources and frameworks are now in place to respond to emerging threats.

Digital Isle of Man and other agencies will continue to make the case for the Island as a secure and trusted home for well-regulated iGaming.
Responding to the announcement, Global Gaming Solutions said the statement provides important reassurance for existing licence holders and prospective businesses operating in the sector.
Mark O’Neill, Managing Director of Global Gaming Solutions, said:
“The Isle of Man Government’s reaffirmation of its commitment to the iGaming sector provides important clarity and reassurance for existing licence holders and the wider global industry.

Global Gaming Solutions added that clear, public affirmation of Government support plays a valuable role in maintaining confidence during periods of change, particularly for jurisdictions with a strong international reputation for regulatory quality and cooperation.
The Isle of Man Government stated that it will continue to work closely with industry. The aim is to support sustainable growth, meet international standards, and secure the sector’s long-term success. The Government will carry out further outreach and information sharing over the coming year to ensure regulatory expectations and emerging risks are clearly understood.
