Lithuania – Slotegrator’s game content integration solution attains Lithuanian certification

By William - 21 July 2022

Slotegrator’s solution for the integration of games onto gambling platforms, APIgrator, has been certified for the Lithuanian market.

Since its legalisation in 2016, iGaming revenue has tripled in Lithuania and this month saw the Lithuanian Seimas approve additional amendments to the national Gambling Law and the Law on Lotteries and Gambling Taxes as part of ongoing reforms in the legislation of the Baltic States.

The key change brought about by the new legislation is the introduction of a new remote gambling license. Essentially, licensees no longer need to run any land-based gambling establishments.

In 2020, as in other countries, due to the mandatory lockdown, the income of land-based gambling establishments in Lithuania dropped sharply. The market sank 8.1 per cent to €103.5m. At the same time, iGaming’s vertical revenue increased by 47.1 per cent to €59.6m in gross gaming revenue. After almost doubling their GGR in a year to reach €29.4m, online slots have become the main source of revenue.

Ultimately, the Lithuanian iGaming market is expanding, enabling operators and players to use new features, including the ability to integrate gaming content into gambling sites.

Ayvar Gabidullin, Business Development Manager at Slotegrator, commented on the product’s entry into the Lithuanian market: “We’re incredibly excited that APIgrator is certified in Lithuania.

“The market’s rapid growth has really captured our attention, and now we’re looking forward to working with clients to offer Lithuanian players the best possible iGaming experience.”

Operators that use the game content integration solution can enter the Lithuanian market with their offer. APIgrator provides access to over 15,000 certified games from over 100 licensed industry developers — including slots, live dealer games, poker, virtual sports, and card and casual games — with a single API integration.

The solution saves time, minimises costs, and eliminates administrative work. The operator does not need to provide technical support for individual integrations, conduct lengthy negotiations with suppliers, negotiate deal terms and enter into contracts with each provider separately.

Comprehensive verification is also not required as the developer has a long-term partnership with all its game developers. By concluding one contract, the online casino operator gets access to the offers and promotional tools of any of the providers.
