Rank Group Plc has praised the UK Government's White Paper on gambling legislation, stating that the long-awaited review has reached the objective of striking the right balance between “consumer freedoms and choice on the one hand, and protection from harm on the other.”

Green Jade Games is all set to take its content live across the United Kingdom, after securing a supplier licence by the region’s Gambling Commission.

The casino content development has been cleared to offer casino titles to operators and players in the UK for the first time, as it strives to deliver “a playing experience like no other.”

Encapsulating slots where players can determine the course of the narrative and the outcome of the game, the firm intends to build upon an ethos of creating games that allow consumers to improve their skills at deploying a number of features.

Benedict McDonagh, Green Jade Games CEO, explained: “Being granted a licence by the UK Gambling Commission is a major milestone in our journey as we look establish Green Jade as a top game developer in regulated markets all over the world. 

“Our slots offer something truly different, and we are thrilled to now be able to integrate them with online casino operators in the UK and to make them available to their players for the very first time.

“I’d also like to tip my hat to the team at Maxima Compliance who did a fantastic job of ensuring we secured our licence with a short a time as possible.” 

Green Jade worked alongside regulatory and technical compliance provider Maxima Compliance in order to ensure that its games were fully compliant with the requirements of the UKGC. 

Antonio Zanghi, founder and managing director at Maxima Compliance, added: “We are thrilled to have assisted Green Jade Games in seamlessly acquiring a UKGC licence, allowing it to launch its fantastic range of games in the UK for the first time. 

“By providing guidance throughout the licensing application process, we are proud to have helped Green Jade focus its attention on creating some of the most exciting online casino content available.”
