Online casino operator NetBet has announced that it will begin operations in the highly regulated Danish market after obtaining a license in the country.
This new license, issued by Danish regulator Spillemyndigheden, will allow NetBet to offer online casinos in Denmark. This operator is currently active in the country and gives players access to a wide variety of games.
The operator, active in Denmark through NetBet.com/dk, offers slots, casino and live casino content for players. This includes games and titles from his partners Push Gaming and Pragmatic Play.
Push Gaming slot content includes Razor Shark, Goat Getter, and Boss Bear. Players will also have access to Pragmatic Play games such as Gates of Olympus, Sugar Rush, and Sweet Bonanza.
“We are excited to launch in Denmark,” said Claudia Georgevici, NetBet Denmark PR Manager. She said: “Opening in this market is an important next step for our brand as we look to open in more licensed territories within Europe.
“Our extensive experience creating exciting and rewarding online casino experiences with our players will be great for our new customers as well. We look forward to welcoming them to our team. ”
NetBet is also active in several other major markets, including the United Kingdom and Italy. Last summer, it was also added to the list of Germany’s approved carriers, allowing it to offer slots in the country.
Survey raises concerns about bonuses from unlicensed Danish sites
NetBet joins a roster of other operators to gain approval in Denmark. However, the country still faces challenges from unauthorized activities.
A study last month found that people who deliberately gamble on unlicensed sites take advantage of higher payouts, bonuses and a wider variety of games on offer.
In contrast, participants cited management and supervision, reliability, and availability of the Danish language as reasons for gambling on licensed sites. The study is based on an online survey created by Spillemyndigheden in collaboration with Statistics Denmark. Results are based on a pure sample of 30,070 people.
Key findings include that of those who have played online in the past 12 months, 2.1% said they knowingly played on an unlicensed site. If we include those playing on unlicensed sites offering gambling in Denmark, this rises to 3.8%.
A total of 8.6% of players are unaware whether the site they are playing on is licensed.
