VSTechnology Limited becomes the 23rd supplier authorised by the GCGRA in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Playtech <\/strong>subsidiary VSTechnology Limited <\/strong>has been granted a Gaming-Related Vendor Licence in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), becoming the 23rd supplier authorised by the country’s gaming regulator<\/a>, according to its public register.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Playtech acquired Gaming Technology Solutions, the previous owner of VS Technology and VS Gaming, for up to \u20ac21.6m in a deal announced in December 2009. VSTechnology Limited is registered as a wholly owned UK subsidiary of Playtech engaged in licensing online gaming software and games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA) has added VSTechnology to its public register of licensed gaming-related vendors, it has not disclosed when the licence was issued, its licence number, or the products and services covered by the approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The addition expands a supplier list that includes major industry companies such as Aristocrat Technologies, International Game Technology, LNW Gaming, Novomatic, Konami Gaming, Scientific Games International, Cammegh and Endorphina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the number of licensed suppliers continues to grow, operator licences remain limited. The GCGRA currently lists Wynn Al Marjan<\/a> as the only licensed land-based gaming facility, The Game LLC as the operator of the UAE Lottery, and Coin Technology Projects LLC as the licence holder for internet gaming and sports wagering.<\/p>\n\n\n
