Vendor license granted to Light & Wonder in United Arab Emirates
In a significant move, Light & Wonder, a leading supplier of gaming-related services, has been granted a gaming-related vendor license by the United Arab Emirates' General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA). This license allows Light & Wonder to provide a range of gaming products to licensed operators in the country.
The UAE, known for its burgeoning commercial gaming market, is now part of Light & Wonder's global reach. With this development, Light & Wonder can offer its full spectrum of casino games and gaming machines - across land-based and online platforms - to approved commercial gaming operators within the UAE’s newly regulated gaming ecosystem.
The range of products that Light & Wonder can now provide includes land-based electronic gaming machines, table games and related utilities, and online iGaming content and online casino games. This move is expected to significantly enhance the gaming experience for players in the UAE.
Securing a license from the GCGRA is an important milestone for Light & Wonder as they enter one of the most anticipated new regulated markets in the world. Matt Wilson, President and CEO of Light & Wonder, expressed his delight, stating, "This is a significant milestone for Light & Wonder as we enter one of the most anticipated new regulated markets in the world."
Light & Wonder's commitment to safe, secure, and responsible gaming experiences is reflected in the license granted by the GCGRA. The company is one of the first approved suppliers in the UAE, a testament to its ongoing collaboration with regulators.
Light & Wonder is excited to bring its trusted, responsible, and player-first approach to the UAE. This expansion marks a significant step forward in the company's global growth strategy and reinforces its position as a leading supplier of gaming services.
