Kindred Refuses to Stop its Operations in Norway
Kindred Group is standing firm against the threat of fines against its Trannel International subsidiary in Norway.
Lottstift, Norway’s gambling regulator, warned Trannel International last week that it would be fined NOK 1.2m (€120,000) a day if it did not immediately withdraw its online gambling offering in the country.
The regulator warned that it would take its toughest approach with Trannel because of repeat offences, imposing a “coercive fine” based on its estimations of Trannel International’s annual earnings. It put those at NOK 437m (€43m).
Kindred has already seen through various legal appeals in Norway but it is standing firm arguing that it is not violating Norwegian law and will not withdraw its offer from the market.
In an interview posted on Kindred’s website, Rolf Sims, the group’s public affairs manager for Norway, argued that it was not illegal for Norwegians to use Kindred’s operators, “in the same way that it is not illegal for Norwegians to shop with eBay or Amazon”.
He also said there was a “flagrant incompatibility” between Norwegian law and European Economic Area (EEA) law. Norway maintains a monopoly system on gambling with state-owned Norsk Tipping and the private trust racing betting operator Norsk Rikstoto the only operators permitted to offer gambling products under Norway’s Gambling Act.
Sims said: “In failing to organise a transparent licensing regime and conducting a truly consistent gambling policy, we feel that the fundamental freedoms within EEA law are systematically being violated by Norway, to the Norwegian Government’s advantage.
“Ensuring compliance with national and international laws contributes to a sustainable society. This also extends to Norway. A comprehensive judicial review of the legality of the order issued in 2019 and the gambling monopoly is for the benefit of Norwegian society, consumers and vulnerable players.”
Lottstift has noted that Kindred’s website featured Norwegian currency and customer support and that the group had broadcast advertisements in Norway. It has carried out various actions against Kindred including IP blocks and payment blocks and banning Kindred’s apps from appearing in the Apple App Store.
A request from Trannel for Oslo District Court to evaluate whether the blocking decision is valid is due to be heard in May.

Playbook Fusion teams up with BetComply to bring new betting genre to regulated markets
Reading Time: < 1 minute
Boutique games studio Playbook Fusion has partnered with BetComply to bring an entirely new genre of betting to regulated markets for the very first time.
The partnership has already seen Playbook Football
, a real money virtual football management betting game, go live in the UK with brands including Ladbrokes and LiveScore Bet under a UKGC licence and eCogra certification.
The product has also recently launched in Brazil with Superbet, the Netherlands with Bingoal and Nigeria with LiveScore Bet.
The unique nature of the product meant that Playbook Fusion turned to BetComply for a deeper level of compliance understanding than is usually required by a standard slots studio or sportsbook platform.
BetComply will continue to support Playbook Fusion in the rollout of Playbook Football
and future products to other regulated jurisdictions.
Steve Rogers, founder and CEO of Playbook Fusion, said: “Working with BetComply has been a smooth and productive experience. Their team quickly understood our business goals and provided clear, actionable guidance throughout the process. They combine deep regulatory insight with a practical mindset, which has been especially valuable as we continue to roll out our products into new markets. It’s been great having them as a steady partner along the way.”
Mike de Graaff, Chief Compliance Officer at BetComply, said: “We’re firm believers that good regulation doesn’t need to stunt product innovation. By engaging early and taking compliance seriously, Playbook Fusion has shown how completely new products can move quickly and successfully through regulatory processes. We’re proud to support their expansion, and we’re looking forward to helping them bring the game to more regulated markets worldwide.”
