PDX Slots gets green light to enter Ontario market
iGaming supplier already live in home state of Michigan
Michigan-based online gaming provider PDX Slots has been cleared to enter Ontario’s lucrative iGaming market.
The company has been granted a license by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) to provide its solutions to regulated operators in the province. PDX helps gaming developers launch their games, integrate with online casino operators’ platforms and build scalable operations.
PDX Slots is already live in its home state of Michigan, where it launched with Rush Street Interactive’s BetRivers-branded online casino back in May. At that time, its CEO Chris Housel said it intended to follow the home-market launch with expansion into other leading iGaming jurisdictions, citing Ontario and New Jersey as attractive markets.
“Receiving a license to offer our market-leading content in Ontario is another important milestone for PDX Slots as we continue to expand,” said Housel of the Canadian launch.
PDX Slots has partnerships with the likes of Internet Vikings, whose custom hosting solutions it leveraged for its U.S. launch.
It will now enter an Ontario online casino market that has proven to be hugely lucrative through less than three years. The commercial market saw $64 billion in total wagers from April 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024 and operators made $2.4 billion in gross gaming revenue. iGaming Ontario’s reporting shows that online casino games generated 86% of total wagers and 75% of GGR revenue in the province.
PDX Slots is the second brand to receive a supplier license from the AGCO in the space of a few days, after Vancouver-based dealerless electronic poker and table games provider Jackpot Digital got the green light late last week.
