Swedish Gambling Authority

Like the Malta Gambling Authority, the Swedish Gambling Authority (SGA) is an organization that regulates activities on matters of gambling. The body was established by the Swedish authorities to ensure that the gambling market in the country is reliable, safe, and legal. That means SGA regulates and licenses all the gambling activities in Sweden. The organization operates under the control of Sweden's finance ministry.

Licensing Scope

The SGA regulates and offers licenses on several gambling platforms, including live casino sites, poker rooms, bingo halls, sportsbooks, and lottery sites, among others. The body does conduct regular checks on all gambling platforms, including online casinos operating in Sweden, to ensure they comply with the country's gambling laws and policies.

Knowing If an Online Casino is SGA-Verified

One unfortunate thing about SGA is that it is yet to adopt automatic verification. So that leaves Swedish players with one option; nailing down the brand under which an online casino operates.

Finally

The Swedish Gambling Commission is a casino licensing authority with a solid rap. However, the fact that the authority mainly focuses on protecting Swedish players more than international players may be a bit worrying. So, players who are playing from abroad may have reservations about this body.
