Octoplay enters North America with Ontario licence approval

Casino games developer Octoplay continues to expand its regulated markets presence after securing approval from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario.

The approval marks the company's first licence in North America and enables the supplier to provide its suite of online slots to licensed operators in the Canadian province.

“We have been clear about our mission to obtain a licence in every single regulated market, and this is a testament to this,” said Octoplay legal director Martina Borg Stevens. “To be awarded a licence from such a prestigious regulator makes us feel incredibly proud and establishes a strong foothold in North American market, which we look forward to building upon.”

Octoplay commercial director Nick Vuchev added: “Our slot games are in high demand among players in markets across the world. It’s no surprise that operators want to stock our titles, and that’s why we are working hard to secure licences and approvals in all regulated markets.

“Securing our Ontario licence is a major milestone in this journey, and we look forward to seeing our slots land in the lobbies of popular casino brands in Ontario for the first time.”

The Ontario licence adds to Octoplay’s existing licences in the UK, Malta and Sweden.
