Winning Online Casino Licenses in Spain
The various regions of Spain are beginning to open up to new gambling
opportunities – everything from betting, to the lottery, to even online casinos
and mobile gambling. Spain has invested each of the regions with the power to
decide how and when to deal with land and internet gambling issues, and as such
several regions are really beginning to open up the market to new forms of
gambling. Creating some problems though is the fact that only a handful of
companies will be licensed within each region to offer online casinos and land
betting and gambling – the other countries will have no access to that region of
the Spanish betting market. That is where the several gambling companies are
running into problems – losing out to competitors in excusive markets.
According to recent reports from both William Hill land and online casinos
betting group and the Basque region of Spain, Will Hill has exclusive rights to
operate the region’s lottery system. Other contenders for the exclusive license
include popular names in the land and online casino gambling industry such as
Intralot and Ladbrokes among others. Will Hill own out over these competitors
for the exclusive license and not Intralot and others will have the ability to
apply for licenses to operate land betting in other regions of Spain.
Intralot in fact already has a license to operate land betting in Madrid – the
only catch is that the Madrid market is far from exclusive and Intralot will
face competition from Will Hill and other companies planning to open betting
shops in the Madrid. |
