Playnetic has announced the approval of its gaming-related supplier application by the Alcohol & Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO).
With the AGCO licensing process being recognised for its rigorous standards and thorough due diligence, the new certification confirms Playnetic meets the high levels of integrity and regulatory compliance needed to legally distribute its content within the province.
As a result of this approval, Playnetic has secured its first Canadian market entry and will be able to provide its library of innovative games to licensed operators in the Ontario region – with this starting point paving the way for further expansion into other regulated provinces in future.
Given the signs of change emerging within the Canadian market and Alberta making progress toward a regulated online model, likely drawing from Ontario’s framework, this license positions Playnetic to expand its footprint in the country and further solidifies the company’s ambitious growth plans.
Playnetic has begun groundwork with key operators in the Ontario region and is looking forward to going live with some exciting brands over the coming months. The company is also attending SBC’s Canadian Gaming Summit from June 17th to 19th, where potential partners are welcome to meet the team.
Dan Phillips, CEO at Playnetic, says: “Acquiring AGCO approval for our gaming-related supplier application is undoubtedly a big step for Playnetic. The new license not only secures our first Canadian market entry but also reaffirms Playnetic’s position as a trusted provider in iGaming and underlines our commitment to compliance and operational excellence.”
Julian Borg-Barthet, CCO, adds: “We are very excited to now be in a position to offer our library of innovative gaming content in Ontario, and the groundwork to do that with some of the region’s biggest licensed operators is already underway.
“Over time, we are confident this license will also help us expand further into current markets and emerging regulated provinces, such as Alberta.”
