Gaming testing laboratory NMi has partnered with daily fantasy sports platform DraftKings to undertake compliance testing for the DFS operator in the UK.
NMi will be testing and certifying the full range of DraftKings fantasy sports contests on desktop and mobile platforms to ensure compliance with Gambling Commission technical standards.
Julian Borg-Barthet, business development manager for NMi's gaming division, said: "We have had quite a bit of experience with fantasy products across Europe already, so when DraftKings approached us for the UK, NMi were in a great position to support them.
“DFS as a new category has phenomenal potential [in the UK] and having DraftKings as one of our clients is a proud moment for us at NMi."
Jeffrey Haas, chief international officer for DraftKings, added: “We are committed to providing competitive and entertaining contests for players while ensuring full compliance with regulatory requirements in every jurisdiction we work within.
"Partnering with NMi affirms this commitment and we are proud to work with such an experienced and trusted entity.”
