Bede Gaming Cleared to Enter Alberta’s Market

(AsiaGameHub) –   The Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) board has deemed Bede Gaming suitable to receive a conditional one-year iGaming Goods or Services Supplier licence, which will become active when the province’s regulated gambling market opens later this year.

As one of the initial international platform providers to gain approval from the regulator, Bede is now prepared to offer its services to operators targeting Alberta once the newly-regulated province officially launches, thereby creating a variety of commercial prospects for the company moving forward.

Fully SOC 2 certified, the established software provider is well-equipped to assist partners in achieving a swift and straightforward entry into Alberta. Its comprehensive suite of in-house products and over 150 third-party integrations offers an ideal toolkit for businesses to scale both efficiently and sustainably.

With registrations having commenced in January 2026, Alberta is anticipated to experience long-term growth comparable to the regulated Ontario iGaming market, making it an appealing destination for international operators seeking to expand their global reach. Bede is honored to be among the first licensed providers in the lead-up to the province’s official business opening.

Colin Cole-Johnson, Chief Executive Officer at Bede Gaming, commented: “Bede is delighted to secure conditional regulatory approval to operate in Alberta, positioning us favorably to support operators with their forthcoming expansions in the province.

“We have a longstanding commitment to the Canadian iGaming industry, and I am eager for the exciting opportunities that lie ahead in this new market. As one of the first applicants to be formally recognized by the regulator, Bede delivers a truly localized service to its partners, and our SOC 2 certification will enable them to hit the ground running as soon as they are ready to launch.”
