Altenar has received approval from the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission to provide its sportsbook solutions ahead of the province\u2019s regulated igaming market launch on June 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Press release.- Altenar<\/a> has received approval from the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission (AGLC)<\/strong>, allowing the company to provide sportsbook solutions in Alberta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The approval positions Altenar to support licensed operators and the launch of Alberta\u2019s regulated online gaming market, expected on July 13, 2026. The province is set to become Canada\u2019s second regulated igaming jurisdiction after Ontario, creating significant opportunities for operators, suppliers and players alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a leading sportsbook provider, Altenar<\/a> plans to bring its award-winning technology, flexible platform capabilities and extensive regulatory expertise to operators entering the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The approval strengthens Altenar\u2019s position in North America as the company continues to expand its regulated market footprint. Alberta is expected to play a key role in the next phase of Canadian igaming growth<\/strong>, with operators focused on attracting players from unregulated channels through trusted, high-quality betting experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Altenar aims to support partners with the technology, flexibility and scalability required to compete effectively in the new market while driving long-term player acquisition, engagement and retention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matthew Ferrara<\/strong>, sales manager at Altenar, said: “Alberta represents one of the most exciting regulatory developments in North America, and we are delighted to be preparing for launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For Altenar, the priority is enabling operator partners to establish a strong, competitive foothold in a newly regulated environment. A key objective will be supporting the transition of players from grey-market platforms to regulated offerings. That requires not only a compelling product but also trust, ensuring reliability, competitive pricing, and a consistently high-quality user experience. If suppliers can help operators deliver that, they\u2019ll play a central role in shaping long-term market dynamics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In practical terms, success will be measured by how effectively we empower partners with a market-leading sportsbook that drives acquisition, engagement, and retention”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conditional licence approval reflects Altenar\u2019s ongoing commitment to meeting the highest regulatory and compliance standards while supporting operators in newly regulated markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
