Certified by eCOGRA, the internationally recognised testing and certification authority, the two standards reinforce the provider’s technical capabilities while helping operator partners streamline market entry by reducing compliance complexity and supporting more efficient regulatory engagement.

GLI-19 and GLI-33 form part of a globally recognised framework for interactive gaming and event wagering across several regulated jurisdictions, including the UK, Denmark, Malta and British Columbia.

GLI-19 sets the benchmark for Interactive Gaming Systems, covering areas such as player account management, platform security, operational controls, game integrations and the underlying technology required for regulated online gaming. GLI-33 focuses on Event Wagering Systems, defining the technical requirements for sportsbook and online betting operations.

Together, the certifications provide regulators and operator partners with independent assurance that Bede Gaming’s platform has been assessed against internationally recognised standards. They also enhance the company’s readiness for jurisdictions where GLI compliance plays a key role in regulatory approval, particularly across North America while remaining widely recognised in regulated markets around the world.

The certifications follow a detailed, cross-functional audit carried out over several months. The process reflects Bede Gaming’s continued investment in developing scalable, flexible technology designed to meet the requirements of highly regulated markets while maintaining high compliance standards.

The achievement is expected to further strengthen the company’s position in North America, where many US states rely on the GLI framework for licensing requirements. Newly regulated Canadian provinces, including Alberta, have also adopted similar compliance standards.

Gerrard Thompson, Head of Risk & Compliance at Bede Gaming, said:

“We are delighted to have achieved certification to GLI-19 and GLI-33 with eCOGRA. Together with our existing ISO 27001 and WLA-SCS certifications, they provide absolute clarity on the maturity of our platform, processes, and governance controls. They indicate to both regulators and prospective new customers that our technology has been independently assessed against some of the most rigorous standards in the industry, and that Bede is ready to hit the ground running in an ever-expanding list of regulated markets.

This is especially important in North America, where regulatory expectations are high and speed to market matters. Our goal is to help operators launch with confidence, knowing that the platform behind them is proven, secure and built for regulated growth.”

Aoife Nic Chuirc, Head of Sales at eCOGRA, added:

“It was a pleasure working with the Bede Gaming team throughout the GLI-19 and GLI-33 certification process. Their commitment to quality and compliance was clear from the outset, and it’s great to see that work recognised with these certifications. We’d like to congratulate everyone involved and wish the team every success as they continue to grow in regulated markets.”

With both GLI-19 and GLI-33 certifications now in place, Bede Gaming continues to strengthen its position as a platform provider for operators seeking independently tested, compliant technology for regulated gaming markets.
