The granting of a UKGC license allows it to sign commercial deals in the weeks ahead. This is because the license gives DWG Group the right to provide online games using real money. The UK has a large gaming market which makes it attractive.

The UK Gambling Commission requires that operators targeting UK consumers use software that is licensed in that country by the regulator.

The news DWG Group licensed in the UK comes then as no surprise, given the requirement and importance of that market.
