Malta licence the next stop for bingo.com

Posted by: Irene | Date: January 29th, 2009

Bingo.com is ready to start a new betting site, which will be located on the Mediterranean island of Malta. Gaming authorities and Malta lotteries have given bingo.com the green light to proceed with the planning.

The company is excited about the new venture and has stated that the operations will commence in the following weeks. The licence that will be issued has particularly high importance, as bingo.com can advertise in the UK legally under the white-listed territory.

The CEO of bingo.com stated that the whole team was extremely excited about the licence that the company has received from the gaming authorities and the Malta lotteries. The CEO stated that bingo.com is performing well in the UK Bingo market and that the current licence will give them opportunities to broaden their number of visitors and the entire company.

Malta is known to be a popular destination for operators who seek licences for the gambling market in Europe. The process is quite involved and it takes around 6 to 9 months to obtain the licence. The backlog of applications in the area also tends to delay the process.
