LeoVegas Plans to Enter a Flourishing Dutch Gambling Market

#BettingLegislation 

LeoVegas Group, one of the leading casino operators in Europe, has recently been granted an online gaming license in the Netherlands, so popular online casinos of this group will soon become accessible to Dutch players.

The license issued to the group by SA (Kansspelautoriteit), a regulatory gaming authority in the Netherlands is valid for five years, and it allows the casinos to provide the most popular types of casino entertainment, namely video slots, crash, and table games, live casino, and sportsbook. 

The group plans to go live in the Netherlands in the second half of 2023.

WHAT ARE THE BRANDS TO SEE THERE?

The group consists of nine casinos, and any of them can enter the Dutch Gambling market. What brands will be available in the country is still unknown, but the probability of seeing BetUK and 21.co.uk, and several other UK-targeted casinos is quite low. However, Dutch players might potentially enjoy the services of any of the websites mentioned below:

  • LeoVegas: one of the most popular online operators that belong to this group. It was established in 2012 and licensed in many jurisdictions, including the UK, Malta, Italy, Denmark, and Sweden. The variety of betting options and bonuses is quite decent here, as well as the choice of national currencies for deposits and withdrawals.
  • Royal Panda: a well-known online casino from 2014 that was purchased by the group in 2017. It operates in multiple markets and provides all popular types of casino entertainment to its customers. It also boasts a good reputation and safe banking with multiple currencies integrated and low risks of non-payment.
  • Pixel.bet: this is a Sweden-focused online operator that offers both sportsbook and casino games. However, as it is licensed in Curacao, players from other jurisdictions are accepted here. It has a Pay N Play service integrated, so no registration is needed here for players in certain markets.
  • Expekt: the operator is targeted at Swedish and Finnish players so far. It has been in the industry since 1999 and offers a diversity of games by popular software developers.
  • GoGoCasino: currently this brand operates in Scandinavia, as it was first launched in Sweden, and then introduced in Finland. However, Leo Vegas Group can potentially bring it to the Netherlands.
