Jackpot Digital receives approval to operate in Maine

Key Points
- The supplier has received approval from the Maine Gambling Control Unit
- Jackpot Digital are looking to receive more state licenses soon
Jackpot Digital will soon be able to supply its casino machines throughout the state of Maine, after it received license approval from the Maine Gambling Control Unit (MGCU).
Not only has this allowed the company to expand its presence, but this marks the first state-issued license it has received in the US, which covers the whole of the Pine Tree State, and does not limit it to just its Indian Gaming casino partners.
For the time being, Jackpot Digital will look to collaborate with gaming operators in Maine, but it does have plans to seek approval for more state licenses in the near future.
This news follows the supplier’s recent expansion efforts in Canada after it received the necessary approval from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) to operate in the province, a few months after it had received approval from the Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority (SLGA) to operate in Saskatchewan.
Good to know: Jackpot Digital went live in the New Mexico market in early 2025
Jackpot Digital CEO Jake Kalpakian said, “Receiving approval from MGCU is a major accomplishment.
“Until now, our US licenses have been exclusively through our valued Indian Gaming casino partners, who issue licenses for their respective properties. A state license, however, grants us access to the entire state. We have several additional state licenses pending approval, representing a major expansion opportunity into larger state-regulated commercial casinos.
“More immediately, this MGCU approval enables us to offer Jackpot Blitz® to gaming operators across Maine. We are excited to bring our innovative products to Maine’s gaming community and reinforce our commitment to delivering cutting-edge technology-driven entertainment.”
