iGaming and sportsbook technology provider Digitain has secured an Isle of Man iGaming software supplier licence. Issued by the Gambling Supervision Commission, the permit comes as the company continues its global expansion plans.
The move places the company within the Island’s regulated gaming framework. Cavendish Trust and Digital Isle of Man supported Digitain during the licensing process.
The approval adds Digitain to the Isle of Man’s regulated supplier base, which operates under long-standing gaming legislation and regulatory oversight. The Island has more than 20 years of experience regulating iGaming, applying a risk-based approach supported by cooperation between government, the regulator and industry participants.
Tim Johnston MHK, Minister for Enterprise, said the license demonstrated continued interest from established technology providers operating in regulated gambling markets.
“Digitain is a significant player in the global iGaming industry, and its decision to secure an Isle of Man licence is a strong vote of confidence in the Island’s regulatory credibility and long-term stability,” he said. “It demonstrates that the Isle of Man continues to attract serious, enterprise-scale technology providers who value high standards and regulatory certainty. We remain committed to supporting a future-focused iGaming sector that delivers sustainable, long-term economic value for the Isle of Man.”
Digitain supplies sportsbook and gaming technology to operators across multiple regulated jurisdictions, supporting both online and retail betting channels. The company has more than 20 years of experience in the gambling technology sector.
The Isle of Man license forms part of Digitain’s international regulatory planning, placing its Isle of Man entity, Bue Whale Limited, under the supervision of the Gambling Supervision Commission.
Cavendish Trust advised Digitain throughout the application process, working with the company and local authorities during regulatory review.
“We would like to congratulate Digitain on securing its Isle of Man licence. Supporting Digitain through the licensing process highlighted both the strength of the business and the calibre of the jurisdiction. Digitain’s decision to secure an Isle of Man licence reflects the Island’s continued appeal to established international iGaming technology providers seeking long-term credibility and stability,” said Shaun Corris, Director at Cavendish Trust.
Digitain said the regulatory process provided direct engagement with the Island’s licensing framework and supervisory standards.
“The Isle of Man represents one of the most credible and mature iGaming jurisdictions globally and working under the oversight of the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission has reinforced our confidence in the Island as a long-term base for our regulated operations,” said Aida Vardanyan, Director within the Digitain group.
“The licensing process of Digitain’s Isle of Man entity, Bue Whale Limited, was rigorous, transparent, and constructive, reflecting the depth of regulatory expertise and institutional stability that the Isle of Man is known for,” Vardanyan added.
Digital Isle of Man continues to work with international technology companies through its iGaming program, promoting the Island to businesses seeking a regulated environment for gambling technology operations.
