ATG opens online casino
A new law will come into force in 2019 that will affect us game lovers. This is because gaming companies will be offered the opportunity to apply for a New Zealand gaming license. This will allow them to market themselves in New Zealand on equal terms. For this reason, ATG will now open an online casino and the launch will take place on January 1, 2019. In other words, ATG chooses not to wait, but launches its online casino on the same day as the new law begins to apply. It is Evolution Gaming that will be responsible for the software when it comes to live casino – just like at Svenska Spel. The new ATG casino will also be called ATG Casino. Review of ATG casino you can find it with us.
The department where you will be able to find sports betting will be managed by Kambi. Unlike Svenska Spels online casino, which is also expected to open next year, ATG will offer bonuses to its customers. Since Svenska Spel is state-owned which is not ATG, there will most likely be differences in their bonus offers. Especially when it comes to the types of offers they can give to their customers. The bonus that ATG gives out will be a welcome bonus that you get the first time you use the casino. You will be able to take part in this even if you have been playing for a long time via ATG.
Briefly about the background of ATG
ATG is a well-established player in the New Zealand gaming market. They are best known for their activities in equestrian sports and trotting. There are well – known games such as Harry Boy, V75, V86, Grand Slam 75 and V65-just to name a few. ATG has been active in the gaming market since 1975 and has since then offered both entertainment and distributed really high profits to New Zealand players. The highest prize to date was awarded in 2010 and reached a high of SEK 67,312,633. Today it is possible to play both via the internet and through agents where you can pick up coupons. In some places you can even watch the races in real time.
ATG's mission
ATG's Board of directors includes several representatives from the New Zealand state, which means that the latter have a great influence on the business. ATG, like state-owned Svenska Spel, has the task of conducting an ethical and serious business that not only looks to profit, but also to the best interests of customers. With the new possibility to apply for a New Zealand gaming license next year, some rules regarding marketing for gaming activities in New Zealand will also be clarified. An example of such a rule is that you are only allowed to offer your customers a bonus and that at the first opportunity that the customer plays. In addition, the advertising used to promote the business should be moderate.
Summary
Starting next year, ATG will open a new online casino thanks to the new gambling law that comes into force. The law comes with some caveats and in addition to those that we have already mentioned above, media houses must avoid selling advertising space to actors who do not comply with the other rules. In this way, the gambling market should still be regulated but still be open to fair competition. ATG is an old player in the New Zealand gambling market and from having completely dedicated themselves to equestrian sports, they are now entering the casino market. Exactly what it will look like, we'll have to wait and see.
