Compliance Updates
Endorphina completes another security milestone!
Starting 2024 strong, the top casino game provider Endorphina successfully completed the external audit by the renowned Testing Laboratory, achieving another milestone in the form of an ISMS Certificate according to local requirements in Italy! This plays an important role in cementing Endorphina’s position in the iGaming world.
Earlier this year, the iGaming software provider Endorphina successfully passed an external information security audit according to regulations governed by ADM. The goal of the multi-day audit was to map out the overall setup within the company, examine every detail involving security, and ensure the company’s games are completely safe for every player.
Over three years ago, Endorphina set a goal to be authorized in all regulated jurisdictions and continues to campaign across markets. By 2024, the company has reached 28 regulated markets and continues progressing rapidly.

Last Thursday, Honolulu Mayor Rick Blangiardi signed into law three bills — Bills 11, 12 and 13 — each of which are related to illegal gambling in the county.
The first, Bill 11, sets requirements on “electronic amusement devices” in public establishments. Operators of the establishment are now required to obtain a permit from the Honolulu Police Chief to use such a device on the premises, or else forfeit the device.
The Police Chief could deny a permit application if the proposed location of the device “would be reasonably likely to result in an increase in criminal activity, vandalism, litter, noise or traffic congestion,” according to the bill. The bill also requires anyone with a permit to allow a police officer to enter the premises and inspect the device and other records.
Meanwhile, Bill 12 allows the Honolulu Department of Planning and Permitting to deny permit applications for properties that have been cited for a gambling-related public nuisance within the previous two years.
And Bill 13 allows landlords to request a police escort while inspecting a private property for nuisance claims, with the accompanying officers authorized to document law violations or unsafe conditions, and to warn people not authorized to be there to leave.
In tandem, the three bills are meant to clamp down on illicit gambling rooms, which often become hotspots for associated complaints of criminal behavior.

The Swedish Gambling Authority has initiated supervision to ensure that the requirements for procedures and drawing protocols are followed.
The purpose of the supervision is to check how the licensees comply with the provisions of Sections 7–8 (routines) and Section 9 (drawing protocol) in SIFS 2024:1.
The Swedish Gambling Authority’s regulations and general advice on draws outside gaming systems, SIFS 2024:1, came into force on 1 June 2024. The regulations state the requirements for draws outside gaming systems. For example, draws must be carried out according to established draw procedures. Draws outside a gaming system may only be made if the requirements in Sections 5–11 of SIFS 2024:1 are met.
Actors involved in supervision:
• AB Svenska Spel
• Folk Games Nonprofit Association
• Motorists’ Sobriety Association
• The National Pensioners’ Organisation
• Vaxjo Lakers Hockey.

The Romanian National Gambling Office (ONJN) has sent official notices to digital giants Meta and Google, requesting the immediate removal of sponsored advertisements promoting unauthorised gambling in Romania.
The ads, found across Meta’s platforms and Google’s search engine, violated national laws and featured websites listed on the country’s official gambling blacklist.
ONJN has called on the two tech firms to urgently investigate the presence of illegal gambling ads, suspend all related sponsored campaigns, and disclose the identities and earnings of the accounts responsible. The regulator also urged both companies to introduce preventative measures to stop similar breaches from recurring.
According to Romanian law, advertising unlicensed gambling services is punishable by fines ranging from 50,000 to 100,000 lei (€9900–€19,800), with authorities authorised to seize any revenue generated from such activity. Providing payment, promotional or IT services to unlicensed operators may also constitute a criminal offence.
The updated list of licensed operators and prohibited websites is available on the ONJN website.
