Online casino games developer Wazdan ends 2024 on a high with a launch into yet another relegated market, this time in Denmark.
The Malta-based company revealed on LinkedIn that it has been granted a licence by the Danish Gambling Authority, Spillemyndigheden. There are 44 active licensed gaming firms in Denmark, including prominent players like Betsson, 888 and Betfair.
“Wazdan will now be able to deliver its full suite of games to licensed gaming operators active in the Danish market,” the firm’s statement on LinkedIn read.
“Wazdan puts great emphasis on cooperating with the largest casino licensors to provide secure, transparent and rewarding partnerships with operators from all over the world.
“We’re proud to announce that our games are now fully licensed by Spillemyndigheden, bringing the true value of Online gaining to Denmark.
“What a way to finish off this rewarding year.”
The licence builds on an active year for Wazdan. Just before Christms, the company’s CEO, Michał Imiołek, highlighted how it had released 26 new titles while securing 700 integrations throughout the year in an interview with CasinoBeats.
“Wazdan has continued to gain ground throughout 2024, solidifying our market position in already established territories as well as the commencing of new ventures,” he said.
“We are proud to have entered four new markets, including Croatia, via one of the nation’s leading operators, PSK, while also debuting in the Philippines with SG8.
“September also marked our successful entry into the Pennsylvania market, enhancing our presence in North America with our offerings that players across New Jersey, Michigan, and West Virginia already enjoy.”
With the Spillemyndigheden licence, Wazdan enters the Nordics’ most competitive market as Spillemyndigheden reported overall gambling spend of DKK 553m (€74.2m) in September 2024, for example, though this did mark a slight year-over-year decline.
