Playnetic, a renowned global B2B iGaming content provider celebrated for its premium games, dependable services, and exceptional customer support, has disclosed the endorsement of its supplier application related to gaming by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO).

The AGCO, acknowledged in the industry for its stringent criteria and comprehensive assessment procedures, has granted Playnetic the certification, affirming the company’s ability to adhere to the high standards of integrity and regulatory requirements essential for the legal dispersion of its content in the province.

This accreditation marks Playnetic’s debut in the Canadian market, enabling the company to offer its collection of cutting-edge games to licensed operators in the Ontario region. This initial step sets the stage for potential expansion into other regulated provinces in the future.

In light of the evolving landscape in the Canadian market and Alberta’s advancements towards an online regulatory framework, possibly influenced by Ontario’s model, Playnetic’s licensure strategically positions the company for growth within the country and bolsters its ambitious expansion strategies.

Meanwhile, Playnetic has initiated groundwork with key operators in Ontario and anticipates launching its offerings with prominent brands in the upcoming months. The company is also set to participate in SBC’s Canadian Gaming Summit scheduled from June 17-19, extending a warm invitation to both current and prospective partners to engage with its team.

Dan Phillips, Chief Executive Officer at Playnetic, said:

Acquiring AGCO approval for our gaming-related supplier application is undoubtedly a big step for Playnetic.

The new license not only secures our first Canadian market entry, but also reaffirms Playnetic’s position as a trusted provider in iGaming and underlines our commitment to compliance and operational excellence.”

Julian Borg-Barthet, Chief Commercial Officer at Playnetic, said:

We’re very excited to now be in a position to offer our library of innovative gaming content in Ontario, and the groundwork to do that with some of the region’s biggest licensed operators is already underway.

Over time, we’re confident this license will also help us expand further into current markets and emerging regulated provinces, such as Alberta.”
