Poland has issued two more approvals for online sports betting operators, bringing the market’s total number of licensees to 14.
Late last week, Poland’s Ministry of Finance issued an online sports betting license to Typiko Sp. z. oo. The company is based in Bielsko-Biała and the company name was registered in Poland in June 2016, listing Aleksandra Kuliniak as its president. Despite the similarity in name, the company doesn’t appear to be formally connected with German betting operator Tipico.
Two days later, the Ministry issued a similar diploma to the Warsaw-based Traf-Zakłady Wzajemne Sp. z oo. The company is a land-based race betting operator affiliated with the state-run lottery and slots monopoly Totalizator Sportowy.
The Ministry has now issued seven new online sports betting licenses this year, matching the total the government issued in 2017 following the late-2016 amendments to the country’s gambling laws.
