In the UK\u2019s case, the sector remains impressive with hundreds of licensed operators active there, but is also in the midst of a regulatory and taxation overhaul \u2013 though Digitain appears well aware of market demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are starting this year with a huge milestone achieved in our regulated market strategy,\u201d said <strong>Vardges Vardanyan<\/strong>, Founder of Digitain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe UK is widely recognised as one of the most demanding regulatory environments in the global gaming industry, and meeting these standards is a strong endorsement of our technology, compliance capabilities, and operational maturity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis achievement enables us to support UK-licensed operators with confidence, delivering reliable, scalable, and future-ready solutions designed to perform in highly regulated markets.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company has also been investing heavily in product innovation, compliance frameworks and risk management.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It unveiled its new Maltese headquarters last summer, headed up by CEO <strong>Aida Vardanyan<\/strong>. This was a big moment for the firm given Malta\u2019s status as one of Europe\u2019s largest iGaming hubs, if not the largest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By establishing its presence in two of Europe\u2019s biggest iGaming licensing jurisdictions, Malta and the Isle of Man, and now in one of its most lucrative markets, the UK, the firm is setting the stage for wider growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UK-licensed operators can now integrate Digitain\u2019s sportsbook and platform, benefiting from an infrastructure designed for high-volume environments, advanced sportsbook functionality, and full regulatory alignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Arshak Muradyan<\/strong>, Group Chief Compliance Officer at Digitain, added: \u201cSecuring a UK betting licence alongside full Sportsbook and Platform certification is a clear validation of Digitain\u2019s compliance-first approach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe UK market demands continuous oversight, robust controls, and absolute transparency, and this approval confirms that our systems, processes, and governance structures are built to meet those expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/sbceurasia\">Telegram channel<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sportsbook and iGaming solutions provider Digitain has been granted a betting licence by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC).&nbsp; The Armenia-founded company\u2019s sportsbook and platform achieved full UK market certification just days after it was awarded an iGaming software supplier licence from the Isle of Man.
