Internet Vikings Wednesday announced it is the first igaming and online sports betting hosting provider to acquire a license from the Nevada Gaming Control Board. The Stockholm, Sweden-based company also has recently been licensed in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
“Receiving the license to operate in the Nevada market will be a game changer for Internet Vikings,” said Internet Vikings CEO and founder Rickard Vikstrom in a statement. “It is an important online gaming and sports betting market to launch in, and we look forward to building new partnerships.”
“Being the first to be able to provide gaming-specialized cloud hosting solutions in Nevada is a big achievement,” said Internet Vikings COO Kristoffer Ottoson. “We are pleased with our increasing presence in the U.S. igaming supplier market.”
In order to operate in Nevada, Internet Vikings first had to secure a client and submit all supporting documentation.
“Myself and the rest of the team recognize how vital this position in Nevada is for our success in the U.S. market and anticipate many strong partnerships to come,” Vikstrom said, noting the company is “preparing to expand our offerings into all upcoming states like Maryland and others.”
