ComeOn secures Danish licence
Online operator says it has “some really interesting things coming up” for the Scandinavian market
ComeOn has been granted a Danish license for sportsbook and casino, the operator announced today.
The licence will run for five years, the maximum offered by the Danish Gambling Authority.
ComeOn already holds licences in Sweden, Malta, Schleswig-Holstein and the UK, as well as a sports betting licence in Poland.
“We are thrilled to be able to offer the Danish players our products and services. We have been preparing for this for quite some time and we have some really interesting things coming up”, says Lahcene Merzoug, CEO at ComeOn.
The firm did not respond to an EGR question about which brands it would launch and when.
Hajper and Snabbare are among the firm’s main brands in Sweden.

The operator recently signed a multi-year extension to its partnership with sportsbook supplier SBTech.
The wider Cherry group was taken private earlier this year by private equity firm EE Intressenter.
Sports betting revenues in Denmark grew by 10% year-on-year in Q1 2019, to £73m, while online casino revenues rose 7% to £66m.
A combined Danish licence for betting and casino costs just under £50,000.
