Realistic Games Granted New United Kingdom Gambling License
This license represents a significant step for us. We’ve worked closely with the Gambling Commission throughout the application process and have now passed the most stringent tests of probity and due diligence.
Realistic Games' commercial director, Andy Harris
From the 1st of October 2014, the United Kingdom will start implementing their new Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act. The act will require all online gambling sites to apply for a new licence to be able to operate legally in the UK.
From January 2015, online software developers will also be required to hold a special Remote Gambling Software Operating license. Realistic Games are one of the first software developer companies to have been successfully granted the said licence. They wanted to get accepted early as they believe it is important to have this change in place for current and future potential customers.
