CGA – Responsible Gaming Policy

Published

Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

In accordance with Article 12.1(4) of the LOK, the CGA consults with representative organizations when drafting policy. As yet no such organizations have presented themselves and, as a result, has not been designated yet, we are inviting the broader sector—including current and potential license holders—to share their views. Given the urgency and critical importance of this policy to promote responsible gaming practices and protect individuals from gambling-related harm, it is essential to proceed with finalization. This approach of broader consultation ensures that a wide range of stakeholders can contribute meaningfully. If you have feedback for the CGA to consider please respond to this email with RG Policy Feedback in the subject line on or before March 5th 2025.

Kambi selected by FDJ Group to take over the role as OLG’s multi-channel sportsbook partner, pending the satisfaction and completion of conditions

Kambi Group plc (“Kambi”), the home of premium sports betting solutions, has signed a novation agreement providing for FDJ Group (“FDJ”) to assign and Kambi to assume FDJ’s contract with Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (“OLG”), enabling Kambi to replace FDJ as OLG’s long-term sports betting partner, with OLG’s consent pending certain conditions.

FDJ, in line with its strategic refocus on international activities on B2C operations in the lottery, sports betting and online gaming market, has identified Kambi as its preferred assignee under FDJ’s contract with OLG. The three parties have since agreed to a contract novation process which, subject to conditions, is expected to lead to Kambi assuming the contractual responsibilities currently held by FDJ, which are due to run until 2032.

To complete the assignment/assumption of the contract, Kambi must make a material initial investment which, as a non-recurring item affecting comparability, will not form part of Kambi’s full-year 2025 operating expenditure guidance.

OLG is the Ontario government agency that conducts and manages gaming facilities and charitable gaming, the sale of province-wide lottery games, and online sports betting and gaming. OLG offers sports betting through its PROLINE brand online and at approximately 10,000 retailers, with 100% of proceeds reinvested into the province.

OLG was the sole legal provider of online sports betting and gaming in Ontario until regulation of the market in April 2022, which paved the way for approximately 50 operators to enter the province. Kambi believes the combination of OLG’s local market position, the PROLINE brand, and Kambi’s high quality sportsbook will enable OLG to further develop its market position.

The parties aim to have the novation agreement conditions satisfied as soon as possible, with Kambi’s expectation that the multi-channel migration will be completed in H2 2025.

Werner Becher, Kambi Group Chief Executive Officer, said: “The prospect of partnering with an organisation of the size and stature of OLG is an exciting one for Kambi and we are working diligently to complete the novation process with FDJ and launch later this year. Ontario has a competitive online market, but I believe a combination of OLG and Kambi will see PROLINE rightly compete with market leaders while continuing to raise the bar of its retail product.”

Investment Signals SharpLink’s Strategic Expansion Into High Growth, Global Crypto Gaming Market

SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBET) (“SharpLink” or the “Company”), an online performance-based marketing company serving the U.S. sports betting and iGaming industries, today announced that the Company has acquired a 10% equity stake in U.K.-based Armchair Enterprises Limited (“Armchair”), which owns and operates CryptoCasino.com. The acquisition was made for $500,000 in cash, along with a right of first refusal to acquire a controlling interest in Armchair.

SharpLink’s investment in Armchair demonstrates its strategy to become the first Nasdaq-listed company focused on crypto gaming. Rob Phythian, Chairman and CEO of SharpLink, stated, “Over the past year, our leadership team and highly engaged Board of Directors have dedicated significant resources and time to identify the best growth opportunities for our Company. Our goal is to strategically leverage our existing performance-based marketing platform and industry relationships to achieve deeper and more lucrative penetration into the digital gaming and sports betting markets.

“Throughout this process, we carefully evaluated more than two dozen compelling opportunities and determined that the combination of market expansion, cost efficiency, security and player demand makes crypto gaming one of the most promising growth opportunities in the online gaming industry today. Furthermore, we believe that the steps we have already taken — and will continue to take — to execute a well-defined plan centered on the exponential growth of crypto gaming, positions SharpLink to become a future leader in this space. We aim to deliver strong, positive cash flow and sustainable long-term value for our stockholders.”

Launched in October 2024, CryptoCasino.com is an innovative online gaming platform that partners with some of the world’s leading gaming studios. It utilizes blockchain technology to provide users with a secure, transparent and engaging next-generation gaming experience. The platform plans to offer over 6,000 online slots and table games, a live dealer casino, a premium sportsbook, an eSports betting hub and a racebook, among other features. CryptoCasino.com accepts a wide range of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and more, catering to various user preferences globally while ensuring enhanced security, transparency and anonymity for players.

CryptoCasino.com offers both traditional registration and Web3 connectivity. By connecting instantly with wallets like MetaMask and Trust Wallet, players can easily deposit and withdraw funds within seconds. In addition, CryptoCasino.com serves over one billion unique Telegram users by providing a Telegram Casino integration, which allows anyone to join and start playing with just one click.

The global crypto gaming market is expected to grow significantly, fueled by the increasing adoption of blockchain technology and the rising demand for decentralized gaming platforms. A report by Fortune Business Insights predicts that the online gambling market will reach $158.20 billion by 2028, with blockchain-based gaming experiencing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.5% from 2023 to 2028. Particularly, crypto casinos are gaining popularity due to their enhanced security, privacy, and transparency features. (Source: Fortune Business Insights, “Online Gambling Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis,” 2023)

Phythian continued, “After careful consideration, we identified several key factors that convinced us that expanding into crypto gaming was the right decision for us and our shareholders. Among the factors that informed our decision-making processes were:

  • The crypto gaming industry is rapidly growing, with more players opting for blockchain-based casinos due to their transparency, security, and quick transactions. This positions SharpLink as an early mover, ready to benefit from the expected industry expansion.
  • Cryptocurrency transactions usually have lower fees and faster processing times compared to traditional payment methods, which benefits both the company and its users.
  • As more players and operators move towards decentralized gambling, early pioneers like SharpLink can secure a competitive edge over traditional operators.

“We are actively advancing our efforts to acquire control of Armchair Enterprises and CryptoCasino.com as efficiently and timely as possible, and we are squarely focused on continued execution of our expansion strategy. As we progress through 2025, we look forward to sharing further details about our exciting plans and future goals,” concluded Phythian.
