A German national license has been successfully obtained by Greentube, the NOVOMATIC Digital Gaming and Entertainment division, to market online slots under the StarGames brand.

This means that the operator has been approved by the Gambling Authority of the Federal States of Germany (GGL) as a safe and secure place for German players to enjoy the best Novomatic and Greentube games. It also means that all of Greentube's processes on Responsible Gaming, anti-money laundering, IT security, and game mechanics have been recognized by Greentube as compliant with the Interstate Treaty 2021.

Georg Gubo, COO of Greentube, says: “Receiving this licence is further testament to the quality and reliability of not just the StarGames brand, but also Greentube as a whole. Being granted the German licence is a major milestone for Greentube and we are extremely proud that the regulatory authorities deemed our application successful.

“Our goal was to create a product of the highest quality, one that customers would not only enjoy playing but also feel safeguarded by while doing so. With StarGames.de, we feel we have a brand and a website that goes above and beyond to ensure we offer players the best place for safe and secure entertainment in Germany.”

Since the Interstate Treaty 2021 came into effect on July 1st, 2021, StarGames, known in the online gaming industry as the first brand to offer the original Book of Ra to online players in Germany, has been operational there. The company's brand manager, Laszlo Pados, continues: 

“Receiving the nationwide German licence is a testament to – and proof of – all the hard work that everyone at Greentube has put into the project over the last two and a half years.

“This also opens up a wide range of opportunities for StarGames.de, mainly in the field of mobile apps, but also in marketing and advertising within the boundaries of the Interstate Treaty 2021. We cannot wait to get started on this exciting next chapter.”
