38 Operators Granted Danish Gaming Licenses

A total of 38 operators have been granted online gambling licenses in Denmark.

The nation was one of the first to embrace Internet casino gaming during the late 1990’s and is home to some of the most successful poker pros.

PokerStars, Bwin, 888, Betfair and Unibet have all made the cut.

The new regulatory framework goes into effect January 1.

"From January the gambling market will be orderly and we will ensure that holders of a betting and online casino license to operate on the Danish market also contribute to the society," said Thor Möger Pedersen, Denmark's Minister of Taxation. "Danes as well as the many associations supported by the gambling market can be joyful."
