Casino game software supplier Skyline Solutions has officially launched in the Isle of Man after being awarded a gaming licence on the island.

Skyline Solutions has been awarded a Gambling Supervision Commission B2B software supplier licence, which will allow the company to resell games to a global market of customers.

Skyline engaged Douglas-based SolutionsHub to assist with the successful application process.

Skyline director Angie Chung said: “We are thrilled to have been awarded the licence and to officially announce our launch.

“The Isle of Man offers us a superb base from which we can serve clients all over the world and gives our software developer partners the confidence that comes with such a highly respected licence.

“The Isle of Man is already home to some hugely respected igaming companies and we are delighted to be joining such prestigious neighbours.

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank the team at SolutionsHub for their experience and knowhow at our disposal throughout the application process and we look forward to a successful relationship working together.”

The GSC Software Supplier Licence was developed following demand from companies located around the world requesting to be licensed by a highly experienced regulator. Software suppliers who obtain a licence can ensure they meet the same high standards as the Isle of Man-licensed operators they supply their games to.

Nick Wright, SolutionsHub Chief Operating Officer, said: “The Isle of Man licence is among the most respected in the industry and is renowned for offering operators and their players the highest levels of safety and security.

“Being licensed in the Isle of Man allows Skyline Solutions to serve a large and lucrative market and to achieve the company’s goals of growing rapidly.  We’re delighted to be helping them on the way to achieving success.”

Lyle Wraxall, CEO Digital Isle of Man commented: “It continues to be a busy time for licence applications through the GSC and I am delighted to see Skyline join our approved list of licence holders. It’s great to see that through the professional guidance of SolutionsHub another successful licence application has joined our well-renowned ranks.”
