Colombia – Colombia to offer additional 20 online gaming licences
By 필 -10 년 2018 월 XNUMX 일
President of Coljuegos Juan B. Pérez Hidalgo has announced plans to grant as many as 20 new online gambling licences in Colombia this year.
According to Pérez, many foreign companies have shown their interest in investing in Colombia now that Colombia has updated and tightened its online gaming laws.
Mr. Pérez said: “We have had several applications put before Coljuegos to request operating permits. To give you an example, only for online games we expect to have twenty operators in 2018.”
Pérez added that the Russian World Cup in 2018 would inevitably provide a huge boost to betting online.
Pérez said that since new regulations had come into effect, more than 150 thousand operations had been registered and that combined they have generated more than $4bn pesos in licensing rights, which have been allocated to the Colombian health system.
The President of Coljuegos added that in 2017 funds for the state broke records as transfers exceeded $ 465,393 million, an increase of 19 per cent over the same period in 2016 when the agency transferred $ 392,393 million to state coffers.
2016년 법안이 통과된 후 온라인 게임법이 강화되기 시작했습니다. 새로운 규정에 따라 라이센스를 부여받은 운영자는 주에서 부여한 조건에 따라 여러 가지 엄격한 의무를 준수하고 기술 요구 사항을 충족해야 합니다. 한편, Coljuegos는 경찰의 도움을 받아 승인되지 않은 웹페이지 차단을 지속적으로 관리해 왔습니다.
In December, it was announced that the board had granted Codere Colombia S.A an online licence. With the new agreement with Codere now in place there are now five sites that are authorised to offer online gaming in Colombia. These are wplay.co, betplay.com.co, colbet.co and zamba.co and codere.com.co.
