The Dutch gaming industry is abuzz with excitement as One Casino steps into the sports betting arena. Recently, the Kansspelautoriteit, the Dutch Gaming Authority, granted One Casino a coveted sports betting licence. This marks a significant milestone for the brand, which is poised to redefine online betting experiences in the Netherlands.
Key details of sports betting licence
The Netherlands recently opened its doors to regulated online gambling, creating a dynamic but highly competitive market. With 17 legal online casinos currently operating, the market continues to grow, attracting both seasoned and emerging players.
Earlier this year, One Casino announced its intention to venture into sports betting. Now, with the licence from Kansspelautoriteit, the plan is coming to fruition, although the exact launch date for the sportsbook remains unknown.
One Casino has made a name for itself as a premier online gaming platform, offering a wide range of casino games. One Casino is collaborating with Delasport, a renowned technology provider specialising in sportsbook platforms. This partnership is a strategic move to deliver a top-tier sports betting experience.
Mark Schram, CEO of One Casino, expressed his enthusiasm for the new venture. Schram stated, “We are delighted to be doing this with Delasport. We always strive to provide the best and most innovative entertainment in the igaming industry, so a modern sportsbook that allows us to offer a superior product in the market to our players fits perfectly with our mission.”
Expanding sportsbook market
This licence represents more than just regulatory approval; it’s a gateway to new opportunities. The addition of a sportsbook allows One Casino to cater to a broader audience, blending casino gaming with sports betting. Delasport’s platform is renowned for its sophisticated features, including live betting, multi-market coverage, and personalised user interfaces. These capabilities align perfectly with One Casino’s goals. The partnership ensures a seamless transition as One Casino integrates sports betting into its existing platform. Players can expect a cohesive and enhanced gaming experience.
Schram added, “As we expand the brand to new markets worldwide, we are also enriching our offering and this time it is with a Sportsbook. We are looking forward to this collaboration.”
With technological advancements and increasing player interest, the Dutch sports betting market shows immense promise. One Casino’s entry could be a catalyst for further growth. As the industry evolves, innovation will be the key to standing out. Features like AI-driven recommendations and live streaming will likely shape the future of sports betting.
