TradaCasino.com is the Isle of Man’s latest licensed online casino after the Department of Economic Development granted the site a remote gambling licence. The site met all the stringent standards set by the IoM gambling authority and Tony Stewart-Lord, director at the company, was understandably delighted at the prospect of the site opening.
“This is an exciting time for us with our plans to launch a no-download ‘gaming on the move’ model into a number of different countries. The licence from the Isle of Man allows us the opportunity to break into these markets, some which have an established iGaming customer base, and other new territories that offer great potential for online and mobile casino player development,” he said.
The Isle of Man can be found in the newly launched Gambling Regulators section of the tablog where an extensive background and rating for every jurisdiction can be found.
