Betsson granted online sports betting license in Germany

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Betsson Sportsbook has applied for and received clearance from Darmstadt Regional Council to operate online sports betting throughout Germany.

Besides the sports betting licenses which have now been granted, the New Interstate Treaty, which paves the way for the regulation and opening up of the market for online slots and poker in Germany, is scheduled to come into force on 1 July.

“We are pleased to finally receive this license and we are preparing to re-launch our German Sportsbook shortly under the German regulation. Operating sports betting in Germany is part of our strategy of strengthening our position in existing markets by prioritising segments where Betsson has the best conditions to offer leading products. We look forward to offer German customers great entertainment,” says Pontus Lindwall, CEO Betsson AB.
