Paf will apply for a license to operate when the newly regulated Spanish gambling market opens for business. The Finnish-based group is seeking to obtain a license that will let them operate online games in Spain.
Cincodias.com reports that the company will consider the tax system in the company before confirming whether they will enter the market though. Albin Tiusanen, CEO of Paf in Spain, believes the “taxes paid by the sector should decline further to become more competitive.”
Sportium, the joint venture between Cirsa and Ladbrokes already unveiled plans to enter the autonomous region of Valencia and it now looks like Paf is all set to join in the fiesta. They are hoping to provide services by January 2012, Tuisanen did explain that, “Everything depends on how long it takes the Spanish Government to process the licenses.”
