Malta-based gaming content developer Playson has been awarded a supplier licence by the Malta Gaming Authority.

In a short statement, the company said: “Playson is extremely excited to announce its successful alignment with the MGA requirements that have led to the company acquiring the status of official MGA licensee (no. RN/101/2018).”

The established developer is now recognised as Type 1 Critical Gaming Supplier, which means Playson can provide MGA-licensed operators with Type 1 games of chance.

These are defined as: “Games of chance played against the house, the outcome of which is determined by a random generator, and shall include casino type games, including roulette, blackjack, baccarat, poker played against the house, lotteries, secondary lotteries and virtual sports games.”

Ivan Farrugia, managing director at Playson, said: “To say this is an important moment for the company is really an understatement.

“The green light from the MGA is like a turbo boost for our already fully-geared engines and we expect it to result in exponential growth for the company and its presence across regulated markets.”
