MGS BINGO GETS THE NOD FROM MALTA
1 August 2008
EU operators increasingly licensing in
Mediterranean jurisdiction
Online gambling software and games developer Microgaming
has announced that its bingo software has been approved
by the Lotteries and Gaming Authority in Malta, a
licensing jurisdiction that is becoming increasingly
popular with European Union operators and is accepted by
UK advertising authorities.
Isle of Man-based Microgaming has already received
online gaming licences for its casino and poker products
from the LGA, and the addition of a gaming licence for
bingo will enable it to service its growing base of
operators in the EU.
Malta is the first EU member state to regulate Internet
gambling and offers four classes of remote gaming
licence, with applicants undergoing probity checks as
part of a wider fit and proper exercise, business and
technical assessment, and finally a compliance audit.
Roger Raatgever, CEO, Microgaming says, “Malta continues
to be a growing hub of European gaming with a successful
regulatory model and we have continued our significant
investment in Malta by setting up various onsite
servers. These will not only enhance connectivity and
resilience for online gaming, but also contribute to a
superior experience for operators and players, alike.
This provides Microgaming with the opportunity to offer
our operators an additional gateway into the EU and we
are delighted to add bingo to our licensed software
offering.
