NOGA’s CEO Peter-Paul de Goeij commented: ““We also see it as a clear sign that more and more operators are seeing the benefit of joining NOGA in the run-up to the opening of the online market in the Netherlands.”
Betway’s director of compliance and regulatory affairs Roger Parkes confirmed: “Betway is committed to providing its customers with a safe and entertaining leisure activity and is confident that NOGA will support the industry and reassure the regulator leading to a successful regulated Dutch market.”
