The supplier, which operates globally, will now start serving businesses operating or aiming for entry into Nevada.  

Internet Vikings has called Nevada the most competitive gaming market, citing strong gambling traditions which date back over a century. 

CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings, Rickard Vikstrom, said: “Receiving the licence to operate in the Nevada market will be a game changer for Internet Vikings. It is an important online gaming and sports betting market to launch in, and we look forward to building new partnerships. 

“I and the rest of the team recognise how vital this position in Nevada is for our success in the US market and anticipate many strong partnerships to come. Our plans for our Nevada clients are already set in motion, and we are preparing to expand our offerings into all upcoming states like Maryland and others.” 

Internet Vikings secured its licence in Nevada after getting a client operating within the jurisdiction. It was only then the supplier could submit all documentation to apply for market entry there, waiting three months for the decision.  

Kristoffer Ottosson, COO of Internet Vikings, added: “Being the first to be able to provide gaming specialised cloud hosting solutions in Nevada is a big achievement.  

“We are pleased with our increasing presence in the US iGaming supplier market. We are operating in most US states where iGaming and/or online sports betting are regulated and we plan to continue expanding together with the growing market.”
