FSB Tech granted supplier license in Ontario

The move is another step toward North American expansion for the company.

FSB Tech has been granted regulatory approval from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). The iGaming and sports betting provider will now be able to launch its services in the Canadian province now that it has been granted a supplier license.

The approval comes in anticipation of Ontario opening its online market on April 4. The company is among the first to obtain a supplier license in the province.

Players will be able to access the company’s iCasino and omnichannel sportsbook once the territory goes live next week.

FSB CEO Dave McDowell said: “This hugely exciting news is a landmark moment for FSB and adds further fuel to our aggressive, forward momentum in the North American region.”

McDowell took a moment to speak about the company’s goals for the rest of the year.

“The pre-market opening approval from the AGCO pays a huge tribute to the quality of our technology, services and people as we push forward in global regulated markets in 2022,” he said.

FSB North America Vice President of Operations Bob Akeret said: “It's an immensely proud moment for our FSB North American team to be one of the first suppliers to receive AGCO certification.”

Akeret also said the company looks forward to expanding its brand in North America. FSB recently signed a sports wagering deal in South Dakota.

“Being licensed as a gaming-related supplier as the market opens puts us in a strong position to play a leading role in Ontario and build further and faster on the major growth we have achieved in North America over the last 12 months. This is an opportunity we look forward to embracing."
