Sweden gambling regulator rolls out new brand identity

Sweden has issued two more new online gambling licenses while the state gambling regulator unveils its new brand identity.

This week, Sweden’s Lotteriinspektionen regulatory body announced that two more companies had been issued licenses under the country’s new liberalized online gambling regime, which officially gets underway on January 1, 2019. The first 16 license recipients were revealed last week.

The Malta-based Videoslots Ltd has been granted an online gaming license for its Videoslots.com domain, while Global Gaming subsidiary SafeEnt Ltd was awarded online gaming and betting authorization for its Ninjacasino.com and Spellandet.com sites.

Videoslots was recently penalized £1m by the UK Gambling Commission for making inadequate checks on its customers’ deposit habits and inadequate followups on customers’ source of funds.
