Spelinspektionen has granted EvenBet Gaming a five-year B2B supplier licence in Sweden, effective 15 July. The Malta-based provider said the approval gives it and its operator partners compliant access to Sweden’s regulated market, and it covers its poker software suite and turnkey online casino platform.
Focus Gaming News reported the same day that the licence should strengthen EvenBet’s position in the Nordic region. InterGame Online added that the five-year approval also covers EvenBet’s poker provision, including its Table Collections feature, alongside its casino suite.
According to EvenBet, the Swedish regime requires annual security audits and random number generator testing. The company said it will handle those checks under Spelinspektionen’s licensing requirements, allowing partners to use its products without repeating the compliance work. It said its software is already independently tested and certified by iTech Labs, BMM Labs and Gaming Laboratories International, and that it holds ISO 27001 certification.
EvenBet also said it employs more than 250 specialists across offices in Malta, the US, Serbia and Armenia. Dmitry Starostenkov, its chief executive, described the licence as another milestone in the company’s long-term strategy and said Sweden is one of Europe’s most mature and well-regulated gaming markets.
The Swedish approval came two months after EvenBet secured a five-year B2B supplier licence in Denmark in May. European Gaming News said the consecutive Nordic approvals reflect a wider pattern of suppliers seeking direct regulatory accreditation in Scandinavian markets.
Sweden’s licensed gambling market generated SEK 6.68 billion in Q1 2026, up 0.8% from a year earlier. Commercial online gambling produced SEK 4.44 billion, or 66.5% of total licensed-market revenue, compared with SEK 4.30 billion and 64.8% in Q1 2025.
Channelisation stood at 84% in 2025, below Spelinspektionen’s 90% target, and slipped from 86% in 2023 to 85% in 2024 before falling again last year. The agency attributed part of the decline to bonus restrictions that make licensed offerings less competitive with unlicensed sites for some players, particularly in online casino.
