Expanding its global position, Playson now operates in more than 20 regulated markets, demonstrating the company’s strength as a supplier and the worldwide appeal of its titles which have garnered the interest of players across Africa, Europe and Latin America.

Tamas Kusztos, Chief Commercial Officer at Playson said: “We’re thrilled to have entered the iGaming market in Ontario, allowing us to meet our elevated growth plans and expand outside of Europe.
