Relax Gaming receives GB licence

The approval will see Relax’s collection of casino games made available to UK operators through its Gibraltar arm.

The supplier said it has already successfully transferred operator partners Boylesports, 32Red and BetVictor onto its Gibraltar network, with Entain’s UK brands – Ladbrokes, Coral and Gala Bingo – among the next to follow.

It added that its expansion into the UK comes as the company continues to strengthen its position in other regulated markets including the Nordics.

“Following a fruitful relationship with the Gambling Commission through our Malta-based company, having all our products and services approved for our Gibraltar branch is another major commercial highlight for us,” said Tommi Maijala, Relax’s chief executive.

“Its significance will be felt across the business, including by our valued third-party partners. This licence acquisition represents fresh opportunity in our drive to deliver excellence and growth across all regulated markets.”

The supplier first received its Gibraltar licence in October 2020, allowing it to significantly expand the number of partners it was able to work with.

In February, Relax said it was targeting expansion in the UK as it appointed Alba Monroy as its new senior business development manager.
