Rootz receives German licence for online slot games

Germany passed the State Treaty on Gambling in the summer of 2021, with the federal and state governments creating for the first time a nationwide regulation for the operation of online slot machines. The regulation has a particular focus on the protection of players and minors.

Malta-based Rootz has met the requirements of the new State Treaty and has, therefore, received the licence to legally operate online slot machines in the country.

A statement from the company read: “With this, the company is expected to establish three safe and legal offers on the German gaming market, which comply in particular with the necessary youth and player protection, and thoroughly meet all technical specifications.”

Rootz Ltd. CEO Lasse Rantala commented: “We are very pleased to meet the high requirements of the new State Treaty on Gambling with wildz.de, wheelzgames.de and spinz.de and to launch our brands nationwide in autumn 2022.”

Founded in 2018 by iGaming professionals, Rootz Ltd. has a strong focus on innovative and efficient programming, along with powerful graphics and rich content.

The group noted: “Based on a philosophy of quality over quantity, Rootz has chosen to approach iGaming with the most competent professionals, state-of-the-art systems and programming, as well as a strong focus on trends and challenges of the future.”

In March, Rootz launched Spinz Casino, its fourth online casino, following sister sites Wildz, Caxino, and Wheelz.
