The Swedish Gambling Authority, known as Spelinspektionen, has ordered Yomoly Ltd to stop all gambling operations that target players in Sweden. The regulator said the company was running online betting and casino services without having the proper licence required under the Swedish law.

According to Spelinspektionen, Yomoly Ltd broke the rules in the country’s Gambling Act by offering games to Swedish players without permission. The regulator said that all gambling operators must hold a Swedish licence if they want to legally offer their services to people living in the country.

Spelinspektionen’s latest decision shows that the authority is working to stop unlicensed companies from offering gambling to Swedish players.

Focus on Protecting Licensed Market

In its statement, Spelinspektionen explained that taking action against unlicensed gambling websites is one of its top priorities. The authority said it wants to make sure that gambling in Sweden only takes place through companies that follow national rules and have the proper licence.

The regulator added that it publishes the reasons behind its decisions to keep things open and clear for the public. This helps build trust between players, the government, and licensed gambling companies.

By making these actions public, Spelinspektionen also wants to warn other companies not to offer games without a licence. The authority said that any company found breaking Swedish gambling laws can face serious consequences, including fines or legal action.

Part of a Wider Crackdown on Illegal Operators

The move against Yomoly Ltd is part of Sweden’s wider effort to clean up its online gambling market. Earlier this month, Spelinspektionen also banned Bitx Operations and Ryker B.V. because they did not have a Swedish licence.

The authority has said it will continue to target unlicensed operators that try to reach Swedish customers through online platforms. In some cases, even suppliers that provide software or other tools to unlicensed sites have been ordered to stop doing business in Sweden.

Spelinspektionen wants to make sure that every part of the gambling industry, including game providers and affiliates, follows Swedish law.

Changes at the Regulator’s Leadership

This latest decision comes at a time of change for Spelinspektionen. Camilla Rosenberg, who has been the Director General of the authority since 2017, will soon leave her position. She will move to a new role at Sweden’s Ministry of Finance.

Despite the leadership change, the regulator said its focus remains the same: to protect Swedish consumers, keep gambling safe, and ensure that the market operates fairly.

By continuing to act against companies like Yomoly Ltd, Spelinspektionen hopes to maintain the integrity of Sweden’s gambling system and make sure that players are only using trusted, licensed operators.
