Gibraltar-licensed provider of lottery betting options Lottoland announced that it has been granted an online gambling license by the Republic of Ireland and its .ie website is now available to gambling customers from the country.
The license has been awarded by the country’s National Excise License Office and makes it possible for the gambling operator to provide its bet-on-lotteries offering as well as scratchcards and other gaming products to residents.
Over the past two years, Lottoland has managed to establish itself as one of the biggest and most dynamic companies to be offering betting on lotteries. It now boasts more than 3 million registered customers from around the world and posted nine-digit revenue for the previous calendar year.
Generally speaking, among other things, Lottoland is best known for providing gambling customers with the chance to bet on some of the world’s largest jackpots and to win the same prizes, including the actual jackpots. Players are able to bet on a comprehensive portfolio of draws, with US Mega Millions, EuroMillions, the Spanish El Gordo, and the Irish Lotto being only few of these.
Commenting on Lottoland’s Ireland launch, CEO Nigel Birrell said tat they are particularly delighted with the recently secured Irish license as the country is a vibrant and growing market, one with excellent potential. Mr. Birrell further noted that they are confident in the success of their offering as there is “a strong appetite” for bet-on-lotteries options in the country.
The Republic of Ireland has become the third country to see Lottoland launch its product offering in over the past twelve months. The company has formerly gone live in the UK and Australia. With that said, the bet-on-lotteries provider now holds online gaming licenses by the Gibraltar Government, the UK Gambling Commission, Australia’s Northern Territory Racing Commission, and most recently, from the Republic of Ireland’s National Excise License Office.
Mr. Birrell further commented that being the third licensed jurisdiction within the past year, Ireland would play an important part in keeping the excellent momentum his company has already secured.
Lottoland was launched in 2013 and as mentioned above has grown into a leader on the market for bet-on-lotteries offering. The company has attributed its continued growth to innovation and the provision of enhanced lottery experience.
