NeoGames has been awarded an operator’s licence by the Danish Gambling Authority (DGA). It will be able to offer interactive scratch cards and instant win games to Danish customers and will primarily be targeting the instant win and soft casino market in the country. NeoGames Managing Director Shay Bar-Joseph, commented: “As we have learned in other regulated markets, such as Italy and Belgium, there is a true market need for an offering that does not necessarily focus on hardcore Casino, but rather combines a softer and more mass market approach. The fact that we already have a few customers that will launch their sites immediately is yet another demonstration of our strategy”

The integration process was very smooth thanks to great help from the integration team. The response time was excellent and, in many cases, we received answers within the hour.”
