Casino game aggregator St8.io has secured an Isle of Man software supplier licence as part of plans to expand the company’s international footprint.
The licence from the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission will allow St8.io to supply its products to other Isle of Man B2B and B2C licensees and other tier-one operators.
The Isle of Man licence follows on from the company’s approval Malta in June and in Romania last year.
“This is another important step in our mission to serve regulated markets worldwide,” said Vladimir Negine, founder and CEO of St8.io.
“We’ve been really impressed by the robust licensing process of the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission, which allows us to deliver innovative technology in a manner that protects both our partners and the end user. As we expand our presence into more regulated markets, the proven reputation that comes with an IoM licence will serve us well.”
Lyle Wraxall, chief executive of Digital Isle of Man, added: “I would like to congratulate St8 for gaining their Isle of Man Software Supplier Licence and look forward to them joining the thriving business community. St8’s decision to expand its operations here reinforces the Isle of Man’s position as a leading hub for the digital and gaming industries.”
St8.io was aided in its licence application process by specialist consultancy Amber Gaming.
Jade Zorab, managing director at Amber Gaming, commented: “We are thrilled to congratulate our valued partner St8 on securing their licence with the support of our advisory services. This achievement underscores our commitment to delivering expert guidance and driving success together.”
Negine remarked: “We chose Amber Gaming because we needed a partner with a complete understanding of this process, a flawless reputation and an efficient approach that matched with our timelines.
“They delivered perfectly on all of these, and I’d like to thank Lee-Ann, Abi and the entire Amber Gaming team for their fantastic support.”
