Stakelogic has been unveiled as a founding partner of the Dutch Gaming Association (DGA) ahead of online gaming becoming regulated in the Netherlands.

The partnership will see the online casino content developer provide its portfolio of video slots to operator’s through the DGA’s platform, as well as developing exclusive slots that can only be accessed by operators using the DGA.

Online gaming in the Netherlands is set to launch on 1 September 2021, following several delays due to the pandemic, with the Remote Gambling Act expected to take effect on 1 March giving licensees less than two months to submit their applications.

The DGA was formed to provide operators targeting the Dutch market with a turnkey online casino platform which is compliant with local regulations. It is expected that 65% of the regulated online casino market in the country will be made up of slots play.

Stakelogic CEO Stephan van den Oetelaar said: “The Dutch market provides tremendous opportunities for operators that can enter the market fast, with content that appeals to the Dutch player preferences and is supported by a platform that is fully compliant with the new Dutch regulations.

“This is a tremendous opportunity for Stakelogic, for the DGA and for operators looking to expand their reach into what is a hugely exciting market.”

DGA CMO Henk Wolff added: "Content will undoubtedly be king in the Dutch market, and that is why we are pleased to have Stakelogic as a founding partner and to be able to offer its games to our operator partners. We are particularly excited about the exclusive classic slots in the works.”
