ARJEL, the French regulatory body for online gambling has granted an internet gaming license to JOAONLINE.
JOAONLINE is a subsidiary of JOAGROUPE, which is France's third largest casino group. With ARJEL's approval, JOAONLINE will be able to operate horse betting as well as sports betting via their website. As a condition of being granted the license, the gaming group's websites joaclub.fr, joa-club.fr and joaonline.fr cannot offer skill games in addition to having a dedicated horse betting site.
Recently JOAONLINE and France-Pari completed a deal that sees JOAONLINE's sports betting to expand this month, with live betting and fixed odds. As part of the deal, France-Pari will supply the platform software as well as manage bets and odds.
