EvenBet Gaming Secures Five-Year Licence in Sweden

EvenBet Gaming, an iGaming software developer, has secured a five-year B2B supplier license from the Swedish Gambling Authority, Spelinspektionen. This approval allows EvenBet to offer its poker platform and comprehensive online casino software to licensed operators in Sweden. It underscores the company's strategy to expand its presence in regulated Nordic markets.

Sweden is an attractive market. The licensing there follows a similar approval in Denmark. EvenBet is focusing on growth in competitive and securely regulated gambling markets in Northern Europe.

Numbers and facts

EvenBet Gaming is now permitted to offer its poker software and online casino suite in Sweden. The license is valid for five years. This authorization enables EvenBet to support tier-one operators in the Swedish market. They must comply with strict regulatory frameworks.

The market development in Sweden is promising. Official data from Spelinspektionen shows that the licensed Swedish gambling market generated a total turnover of SEK 6.7 billion in the first quarter of 2026. This represented a slight increase of 0.8 percent year-on-year. Of this total, commercial online gambling and sports betting accounted for SEK 4.4 billion.

EvenBet will conduct all mandatory annual security audits and Random Number Generator (RNG) tests. This is required under Swedish law. Dmitry Starostenkov, CEO at EvenBet Gaming, emphasized the importance:

“Securing our Swedish B2B licence is another important milestone in EvenBet’s long-term strategy. Sweden has established itself as one of the most mature and well-regulated gaming markets in Europe, making it an extremely attractive jurisdiction for both suppliers and operators. This approval not only reflects the strength and reliability of our technology but also allows us to support our existing and future partners with fully compliant access to a highly valuable market.” - Dmitry Starostenkov, CEO at EvenBet Gaming

The company is also active in the Danish market. There, it secured a similar five-year B2B supplier license from the Spillemyndigheden, the Danish Gambling Authority, in May 2026. The Danish iGaming market generated approximately DKK 11 billion (around 1.47 billion Euros) in gross gaming revenue in 2024.

Background

EvenBet Gaming's strategy is clearly aimed at expansion into regulated markets. The move into Sweden and Denmark demonstrates its focus on the Nordic region. There are stable and profitable markets there. Licensing in these countries means EvenBet must adapt its technology and products to local operators. This includes complying with strict regulations for player protection and data integrity. The B2B approach allows EvenBet to offer a wide range of products. These include not only poker but also a complete online casino suite. These products are designed to help operators attract new players and retain existing customers.

The channelization rate in Sweden is over 90 percent. This means most players prefer licensed offerings. This highlights the attractiveness of this regulated market. Providers like EvenBet must meet the highest technical standards. Annual security audits and RNG tests are standard practice.

Why it matters for German players

For German players, EvenBet Gaming's expansion into Nordic markets has direct implications. EvenBet Gaming is a B2B provider. This means they offer their software to other companies, which in turn operate casinos for end customers. If EvenBet offers its games in Swedish or Danish casinos, these are markets with sometimes strict regulations. Since July 2021, the German gambling market has been comprehensively regulated by the Interstate Treaty on Gambling (GlüStV 2021). This treaty introduced strict rules for online slots. These include a stake limit of 1 euro per spin and a monthly deposit limit of 1,000 euros via the LUGAS system.

German players should only play at online casinos that hold a valid license from the Joint Gambling Authority of the Federal States (GGL). The GGL maintains an official whitelist of all licensed providers. These casinos are subject to German laws on player protection. Playing in a casino without a GGL license risks losing one's rights. Such offers are also often unsafe. They do not comply with the strict rules. This can protect players.

What it means for GGL-licensed casinos

EvenBet Gaming's licensing in Sweden is an important step for the provider. It shows that the company is willing to operate in highly regulated markets. For German online casinos with a GGL license, this could mean that EvenBet Gaming's games might become available in the future. This is provided EvenBet meets the strict requirements of the German GlüStV 2021. This includes technical adjustments to the German limits. This applies to the stake limit of 1 euro per spin and also to game breaks. Software providers who want to be active in Germany must adapt their games to these conditions.

EvenBet Gaming's engagement in the German market would expand the variety of game offerings for GGL-licensed casinos. It would also demonstrate the company's commitment to the highest standards. This would be a positive trend for the regulated German market.
