Bookmaking giant William Hill has engaged compliance specialist NMi to test its full suite of online casino games to the requirements of the UK Gambling Commission.
The partnership comes after the introduction of the new Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act in the UK, which requires operators to undertake various testing and auditing actions.
Those operators that have migrated from other regulated jurisdictions have 12 months to test content to UK standards.
NMi has an existing relationship with William Hill having tested the majority of the bookmaker’s Category B fixed odds betting terminals and games.
“We appointed NMi based on the high level of professionalism and the in-depth compliance knowledge that they were able to demonstrate,” William Hill’s head of QA and Test, Shane Kelly, said.
“As a high-profile organisation, we value partnerships with innovative organisations that can both complement and facilitate our business goals.
“This is a significant development and we look forward to a long-standing relationship.”
Julian Borg-Barthet, business development manager for the NMi Gaming division, added: “Our lab prides itself on the level of service and knowledge that we offer.
“It is reassuring to see that our customers recognise NMi’s commitment to quality when deciding to consolidate service providers.
“Given our location and history we are especially pleased to be working with this iconic UK High Street brand.”
