In a significant development, Air Dice Group, a distinguished online gambling entity, has secured a B2B license from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) to operate in the thriving iGaming market of Ontario.
Having received approval, Air Dice Group is now poised to collaborate with gambling brands in the province, marking its initial foray into the North American online casino gaming scene.
Ontario, the first Canadian province to permit private operators for regulated online casino and sports betting since April 2022, has quickly ascended to a top gaming jurisdiction in North America.
Air Dice Group's recent announcement solidifies its position as a leading game developer known for its strategy-focused money games.
Erkki Nikunen, Partner & CBDO of Air Dice, expressed pride in securing the B2B license in Ontario, emphasizing the company's commitment to regulatory compliance and the high standards of its games and responsible gambling technology.
With a successful presence at ICE London, Air Dice Group's North American entry follows expansions and market debuts in various regulated regions throughout 2023.
Players in the region can soon enjoy popular titles such as Wild Shifter, Gunslinger Legends: Bounty Hunter, Flaming Bombs, Fire Lion, and more.
The permit for the Heartland Province is expected to contribute to the company's continued growth and success in the global iGaming landscape.
In a recent update, iGaming Ontario, a subsidiary of AGCO, disclosed the province's iGaming numbers for the Q3 fiscal year 2023-2024.
Ontario's online betting handle reached approximately CA$ 17.2 billion, reflecting a robust 21% increase from the previous quarter.
Gaming revenue generated by operators and sites amounted to approximately CA$658 million, marking a notable 22% rise.
The province's competitive iGaming sector continues to expand, welcoming operators like Booming Games, known for titles such as TNT Bonanza, Cash Pig, Buffalo Hold and Win, and The Wild Wings of Phoenix.
As the market landscape evolves, Air Dice Group's entry into Ontario underscores the region's strategic importance in the growing global iGaming industry.
