Rapidly expanding content provider continues European expansion with landmark Swedish license

Popular iGaming content provider BGaming is proud to announce it has been granted a license by the Swedish Gambling Authority (Spelinspektionen), marking a significant milestone in its ongoing European expansion.

The B2B license has been issued under the Decision of the Swedish Gambling Authority. It allows BGaming to provide its innovative portfolio of certified games to licensed operators in Sweden.

For the first time, players in Sweden will be able to enjoy BGaming’s exciting game catalogue. This includes popular titles like Merge Up and Aztec Clusters, as well as any new and exciting games that hit the market.

This entry into the Swedish market is a significant step forward in BGaming’s ongoing expansion. The Swedish market is renowned for its high standards of player protection and robust regulatory framework. It is also home to some of the most respected operators in the industry, creating a wealth of opportunities for BGaming.

BGaming’s Head of Legal & Compliance, Antanina Ivanova, said: “Securing approval to enter Sweden marks a significant milestone for us in one of Europe’s most competitive markets.

Our team is always working to ensure full compliance with the highest regulatory standards, and being granted entry into one of the industry’s toughest markets is a testament to this.

We look forward to partnering with leading operators in Sweden and introducing our distinctive gaming experiences to local players for the first time.”

Leading gaming law and regulation conference Regulating the Game has announced the appointment of Tracy Parker, Senior Vice-President, Accreditation, Advisory and Insights at the Responsible Gambling Council (RGC), to the judging panel for the inaugural RTG Global Awards.
