Remote Gambling Software Licence enables digital content developer to plan for the future
Betting content and systems developer Betdigital has been awarded a Remote Gambling Software Operating Licence by the UK Gambling Commission, and joins a select few suppliers that have the necessary licensing to meet the terms of Britain's new Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act ahead of October's introduction.
The Act requires operators who provide remote gambling services to British consumers to acquire a UK licence. These operators in turn will require their suppliers to be licensed in the UK from January 2015.
A spokesman for the company said that Betdigital comfortably met all the criteria, poisitioning it strongly to plan for a future in the British online and mobile gambling market.
The company has clients that include William Hill, Ladbrokes and Gala Coral for popular products like Super Pots Bar-X, Shamrock Surprise, Royal Gems and City of Gold.
Earlier this year Betdigital was approved for a Core Service Provider Associates Certificate by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission (see previous InfoPowa report).

Infopowa news was a staple of Casinomeister’s news from 2000 until 2019. Brian Cullingworth was the main writer, contributor, and was one of the most knowledgeable persons I have ever known involved in the online casino industry.
We first met in January 2001 at the ICE in London where I observed him going booth to booth interviewing online casino, software, and licensing jurisdiction representatives. Brian was also heavily involved with our forum as “Jetset“, he was involved as an informal consultant to eCOGRA, the OPA, and was a player advocate who assisted countless aggrieved players with his connections to industry folks. He also published “Casino Cautions” via Infopowa news for quite a number of years. These can be found in our news archives.
His passing in February 2019 was a dark day for us. He will be forever missed.
