Compliance Updates
Play’n GO have been granted the ISO 27001 certification
Play’n GO have been granted the ISO 27001 certification, an international standard in information security.
Described as “a lifestyle that empowers a business to improve its overall information security posture” the ISO 27001 is awarded to companies that adopt an information security management system (ISMS) that takes into consideration people, processes and systems, and includes a formal risk management framework and process.
In an industry where the protection of data and information is of paramount importance, those meeting the ISO 27001 standard can give their clients the confidence and secure knowledge that they adopted the necessary controls to protect their data and can meet their data protection expectations for any new or existing business needs.
Having been awarded this certification Play’n GO can guarantee customers they are compliant with national and international regulations (such as GDPR), minimising the risk of costly penalties and fines and giving peace of mind that they take their security and compliance very seriously.
Security and GDPR manager, Cedric Mallia spoke about this latest certification:
“ISO 27001 is a testament to our commitment to our client’s security and wellbeing in the industry. ISO 27001 it is not a mandatory standard, but we are willing to go above and beyond to ensure that we are giving our customers more.
It shows we are continuing to build a solid security foundation based upon international standards and best practice, and taking appropriate control measures to protect confidential and privileged information.
Clients know they are in the best hands with us.”
WorldMatch has announced that it has secured the certification in South Africa. This important certification, confirms the compliance of all WorldMatch games with the required standards, allowing operations with an already active client in the region.
WorldMatch’s official entry into the South African market marks another step forward in the company’s international growth strategy.

The Danish Gambling Authority has released the annual report describing the authority’s work with illegal gambling. In the 2024 report, you can read more about a new collaboration with the streaming platform Twitch, and the authority’s focus on a betting trend involving the video game currency “Robux”.
Every year, the Danish Gambling Authority publishes a report explaining the rules for when gambling is legal in Denmark, and the report also reviews the initiatives implemented in the past year to combat illegal gambling.
One of the initiatives launched in 2024 is a collaboration between the Danish Gambling Authority and the streaming platform Twitch, which allows the authority to report illegal gambling content on the platform in the same way as it already does today with Apple, Facebook and Google. This will strengthen the Danish Gambling Authority’s work to prevent Danish users from being exposed to illegal content on the platform.
Another initiative launched last year is an inspection of the “Robux” betting phenomenon. “Robux” betting refers to the illegal offering of gambling where the virtual currency Robux from the computer game Roblox is used as either a deposit or prize.
