Videoslots has confirmed its impending entrance into the Ontario online casino space as the operator continues its expansion across Canada.

The Malta-headquartered firm was first founded by a group of ‘Swedish casino enthusiasts’ and officially launched in 2011, going on to become licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority, Swedish Gambling Authority and the UK Gambling Commission, amongst others.

After advancing in Canadia’s grey market, Videoslots has now chosen to go live in the Ontario market – which recently celebrated one year of regulation – after being granted a licence to launch its offerings by the AGCO last November.

Canada is the seventh jurisdiction Videoslots has an international gaming license, following those already issued in Malta, Sweden, Denmark, Italy, Spain, and the UK.

Ulle Skottling, Deputy CEO at Videoslots, commented: “Launching in Ontario is another milestone for the Videoslots team, and we are excited at the prospect of entertaining players in the region.

“We have always enjoyed great success in Canada and it makes business sense to join the regulated market now that it is up and running and proving to work for both players and operators alike.”

The operator, alongside sister brand Mr Vegas, will enter the market with games from studios including Pragmatic Play, Light & Wonder, Pariplay, and Relax Gaming.

Videslots further announced a ‘tempting’ welcome bonus and a number of customer engagement features, such as Battle of Slots, Clash of Spins, and The Wheel of Jackpots, would be rolled out as part of the process of going live in the Canadian province.
