Microgaming Announces Support for New German Regulations

Online casino content provider Microgaming has announced its support for Germany’s proposed online gaming regulations. The provider also affirmed its commitment to provide customers with a solution designed to prepare them for the new regime.

The new rules will officially come into effect in July 2021. In the meantime, there will be a policy of transitional tolerance, whereby operators can engage with the German market provided they adopt the new regulatory measures. Those that ignore the new regulations may be excluded from the future official licensing procedure.

Microgaming will launch a solution by 15 October that conforms with the German Toleration Regime, allowing clients to be technically ready to enter the German market at the flick of a switch. More than 150 games will be made available to Microgaming customers in the market.

“As a socially responsible business, Microgaming broadly supports the regulatory changes in Germany, where we will be providing our customers with a solution that includes some of our most popular and successful titles – long before the new gambling laws coming into force next year,” Leon Thomas, Commercial Director at Microgaming, said.
