GGPoker Network announced that it has been awarded a Type 3 gaming services licence by the Malta Gaming Authority.

The online poker network said that having an MGA licence will allow it to expand its product reach into new markets, while complimenting its British licence awarded by the UK’s Gambling Commission.

“It’s always a good sign and an honor to receive a licence from Malta Gaming Authority and we could not be more enthused,” said GGPoker Network head, Jean-Christophe Antoine.

“We look forward to signing new partnerships to continue making online poker available all around the world.”

The announcement follows GGPoker’s supply deals earlier this year with partners including TotoGaming and OlyBet. The network will also be used to host the World Series of Poker's Super Circuit Online tournament series, which will take place exclusively online due to limitations imposed by COVID-19.
