Spribe secures prestigious Malta licence
Innovative game developer certified by the Malta Gaming Authority allowing it to enter additional markets and strike new operator partnerships
Spribe, the progressive and innovative casino game developer, is delighted to announce it has been awarded a licence by the Malta Gaming Authority allowing it to offer its games to more operators in more markets than ever before.
Spribe has become one of the most in-demand casino content creators since its launch back in 2018 thanks in part to its highly entertaining Turbo Games which combines elements of social media with simple but engaging gameplay, for a truly fun and entertaining player experience
Titles under Spribe’s Turbo Games category include Aviator, Mines and Dice with each game having been built for mobile play from the get-go. They have also been designed to appeal to a younger audience than traditional slots and in particular Millennials.
Spribe offers operators a series of skill games including Poker, Backgammon, Bura, Seka and Domino. Each of the developer’s titles have been designed and built by a team of experts based out of its modern studios in Kyiv, Ukraine.
Spribe’s games have been developed using cryptographic technology called “provably fair” which means it is impossible for any third-party to interfere in the game process, taking security and trust to the next level. Games are hosted on AWS and Microsoft Azure.
The provider’s Malta licence comes just weeks after it received approval from the Great Britain Gambling Commission to partner with operators in the UK and to offer its games to players in the market for the very first time. More market launches are planned for this year.
David Natroshvili, Managing Partner at Spribe, said: “This is a significant moment in our journey to becoming one of the top casino content creators in the market, allowing us to partner with Malta licensees for the first time.
“This will significantly increase the reach of our games, allowing us to work with more operators and to provide their players, and especially those in the Millennial demographic, with a unique, exciting and thrilling online casino experience like no other.
“The Spribe team has worked incredibly hard to get to this stage and to secure approval from the Malta Gaming Authority and armed with our licence we will continue to deploy or ambitious growth plans for this year and beyond.”

The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) is enhancing its regulatory oversight approach and is outlining its supervisory focus areas for 2025. These enhancements are aimed at strengthening its supervision of the online gaming sector while promoting transparency with stakeholders.
Building on its existing risk-based framework, the MGA is enhancing such framework to a more evidence-driven and outcomes-focused model.

Key outcomes of this refined regulatory approach include:
• Risk-Based Resource Allocation: Directing resources to high-risk areas to ensure more effective regulatory interventions;
• Enhanced Collaboration: Strengthening collaboration with operators to promote compliance and best practices;
• Proactive Risk Management: Anticipating and addressing emerging challenges in a dynamic gaming landscape.

Washington’s Lottery Achieves Nation’s Highest Level of Responsible Gambling Certification
Washington’s Lottery announced that it has achieved the highest level of responsible gambling certification in the country. As acknowledged by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) and the North American Association of State and Provincial Lotteries (NASPL), Washington’s Lottery officially was certified for “Responsible Gambling Verification Best Practices at the Sustaining Level” in December 2024, the culmination of a process that began with certification at the Planning Level in 2019 and Implementation Level in 2021.
Washington’s Lottery is only the third state lottery in addition to Virginia and Ohio to achieve this milestone. NCPG and NASPL also recognize nine other state lotteries that have achieved a similar certification through the World Lottery Association.
“I can’t begin to express how proud I am of the work our team has done to achieve this important standard. We have a unique obligation as a state agency that sells a gambling product and need to balance the goal of raising money for important state initiatives like education with the need to acknowledge and assist the small percentage of players who may experience gambling-related distress. We take that work very seriously and weave it into all aspects of our jobs,” Kristi Weeks, Director of Legal Services for Washington’s Lottery, said.
To receive the Sustaining Level certification, Washington’s Lottery was evaluated by a team of four independent experts, who reviewed the lottery’s efforts in eight key categories related to responsible gambling: planning, employee training, retailer training, public education and awareness, product oversight, research, advertising, and resources.
“The key to our success has been the integration of responsible gambling initiatives into each and every employee’s position rather than centralizing it into only one or a few positions,” Weeks added.
