igp obtains b2b igaming licence in romania
Key Points
iGP is now an official B2B technology provider for locally licensed operators
It can support operators with its platform, aggregator, and turnkey casino among other products
The company says the move is part of a broader market expansion roadmap for 2026 and beyond

Romania’s gambling authority, Oficiul National Pentru Jocuri de Noroc (ONJN), has approved a licence for iGP, allowing the iGaming supplier to begin trading as an official B2B technology provider in the country. 

The company has evolved its offering more than once since launching as iGaming Platform back in 2016, having discontinued its white-label product in past years to focus more intently on B2B solutions. 

This move in Romania further entrenches that direction of travel while expanding the scale of the company’s reach at the same time.  

It is an early move in a year that iGP itself has said will feature broad market expansion. 

Jovana Popović Čanaki, CEO at iGP, has commented on the regulatory approval, saying: “The Romanian B2B licence reflects iGP’s evolution into a focused B2B technology partner, built to support operators with stability, control and long-term scalability anywhere they need us.” 

Products that the company will now be able to offer to licensed operators in Romania include its GLI-19-certified core platform, its games aggregation offering, a turnkey casino and sportsbook, as well as some more recent crypto products exhibited at 2025's ICE conference in Barcelona. 

The Malta-headquartered supplier will again attend ICE this year, where it will likely be highlighting some of the lottery products it began rolling out last year. 

On the industry gathering, Popović Čanaki went on to say: “At ICE Barcelona, we will be demonstrating how this foundation supports real operator needs, from platform and turnkey performance to player engagement.” 

In the January CEO Special edition of Global Gaming Insider, the iGP CEO expressed her belief in the potential of the European iGaming market, while acknowledging certain limiting trends, noting: “The EU iGaming market will continue to grow, but regulation is set to become even tougher, with stricter rules, higher compliance requirements and increased pressure from national regulators, including changes to taxation regimes.” 

Good to know

There are plans in Romania to raise the legal gambling age to 21, which could be enshrined in law in 2026 if approved
