LeoVegas secures Irish sports betting license

Swedish mobile gaming company LeoVegas is back in Ireland after securing a “remote operator license” for sports betting from the Irish Revenue Commissioners.

The Stockholm-listed company announced that it will soon relaunch its betting services within the regulated Irish market. LeoVegas currently serves the market with its mobile casino and expects to roll out its Kambi-powered sports betting offering in the near future.

“LeoVegas continues to grow in regulated markets,” LeoVegas co-founder and CEO Gustaf Hagman said in a statement. “The fact that we have in a short time been granted licences in two regulated markets shows that we are delivering in accordance with our expansion strategy. But it also shows that we have high capacity and quality in our organisation and in the work we do. I am convinced that our market-leading sport product will contribute to strong growth in Ireland.”

LeoVegas currently holds gaming licenses in the regulated markets of Malta, the United Kingdom, and more recently, Denmark.
