“The introduction of MGA casinos in Sweden will take gambling to a new level”: Exclusive interview with Jaser Davari on the growth of MGA casinos in Sweden.
As the Sweden government has added a range of gambling reforms and the restrictions loosen slightly – we caught up with the Swedish iGaming expert Jaser Davari to talk through his vision for the rise of MGA casinos in Sweden.
What are your views about the latest developments in the laws governing online gambling in Sweden?
Sweden always had strict regulations over gambling. The strictness was mainly for the casino companies rather than players. Due to this, the casino companies had limited abilities to profit from the regulations that were in place. Currently, the restrictions have loosened slightly. However, it is important to know what restrictions are in place now.
For example – the government wants to make sure the citizens don’t spend much of their money on gambling. This is why they have limited the deposit amount. Now, the restriction only applies when you are gambling in a casino with a Swedish license. Here comes the savior of the day – casinos without a Swedish license like MGA casinos. These casinos allow players to gamble without spoiling their experience.
Can you tell us more about MGA casinos? Are they different from Swedish casinos?
The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) is one of the most reputable gambling regulatory bodies out there. The majority of the top online casinos are licensed by the MGA and are completely safe for Swedish players. Sweden has a huge player base, and because gambling in Sweden is heavily regulated, these players constantly look for a place to enjoy gambling without any hassle. For them, casinos without Swedish licenses are better places to gamble.
Swedish players are always looking for better services where their gambling experience does not get ruined because of restrictions and limitations. Casinos with Swedish licenses have even put limitations on bonuses. On the other hand, MGA casinos are more private and have no limit on bonuses.
Are non-Swedish casinos safe for Swedish players?
Regulators like Malta Gaming Authority and the UK Gambling Commission are highly respected and trusted. The Swedish government has only allowed online casinos licensed from Spelinspektionen to operate legally in the country. While offshore casinos are not legally favored, players can still play on these sites.
As both Malta and Sweden are member states of the EU, the MGA license not only offers gambling without limitations but also the same safeguards as any of the Swedish licenses. Gambling at any MGA online casino is safe and secure. One of the many reasons behind this could be the strict regulation that MGA puts on casinos to ensure fair gambling.
In fact, a large number of players prefer to play at foreign-based casinos. With MGA casinos, players can gamble as much as they want, which gives them a sense of freedom and control.
Why are MGA casinos becoming so popular in Sweden? What are your views about it?
MGA casinos offer many features, including great bonuses and free spins to the Swedish players. Also, when it comes to games, the MGA casinos offer more options than the Swedish ones. These online casinos work just as well as the average Swedish casino. Among the many benefits that MGA casinos provide, some are quite impressive and most attractive to the players.
Casinos licensed under MGA keep player’s information completely safe and provide 100% privacy. Players are allowed to make higher bets and deposit as much as they want. On the other hand, casinos with a Swedish license limit the deposit amount, which many players do not like. Players can find an array of lucrative and generous bonuses at foreign-based casinos. MGA casinos have a lot of bonuses and promotions for both new as well as existing players.
What is the feature of MGA casinos that you think regular Swedish casinos lack?
We all know how effective and trustworthy blockchain is. Many online businesses are supporting this peer-to-peer technology by accepting the ‘future currencies.’ Lately, a number of online casinos have emerged as bitcoin casinos and brought transparency to their platforms. This has helped both the operators and players.
MGA casinos accept cryptocurrencies at their platform, which you will not find on Swedish casinos. The strict gaming market in Sweden only allows players to use the traditional payment methods. As the popularity of cryptocurrencies is growing, online casinos should adapt to this ‘future currency’ so that players can get safety, transparency, and a variety of games on the platform.
If a Swedish player is fine with the restrictions of a casino with a Swedish license, then playing at a Swedish online casino is not a bad thing. However, if a player wants to explore more features and experience the real thrill of gambling, then there are many MGA casinos to fulfill their needs.
