The move brings Estonia into line with many other nations including Belgium, Sweden, Italy, Poland and The Netherlands while next year should see it open up its market to international gaming operators in order to satisfy European Union requirements.
“We are truly glad of this opportunity to start our partnership with Olympic as the leading casino entertainment provider in Central and Eastern Europe,” said Mor Weizer, Chief Executive Officer for Playtech.
The nation passed its new Gambling Act in October and the legalisation and regulation of online gambling should also help Estonia combat money laundering and corruption.
