The General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA) has granted its first gaming-related vendor licence to an international slot and online technology company: Aristocrat.
The GCGRA oversees commercial gaming activities in the United Arab Emirates, and this step marks a new milestone in the country’s journey towards establishing a regulated commercial gaming market.
Aristocrat is now able to provide the company’s land-based electronic gaming machines and online games and technology solutions to licensed commercial gaming operators.
“We are honoured to be the first large, international technology provider to be awarded a gaming-related vendor licence to serve the UAE market,” said Hector Fernandez, CEO, gaming for Aristocrat.
“At Aristocrat, our vision is to deliver the best seat in the house wherever, and whenever, the world plays. We look forward to doing so by providing premium content for players in the UAE while simultaneously encouraging responsible gameplay.”
