Finland: Wildz says it is the first operator awarded a Finnish online licence

Wildz Group says Finland's National Police Board has granted it a five-year licence from 1 July 2027. The Board has not yet published a list of licence holders.

What was announced

On 15 October 2026 Malta-based Wildz Group said it had received a licence from Finland's National Police Board to offer gambling to Finnish players for five years from 1 July 2027. Its brands include Wildz, Caxino, Wheelz, Spinz, Chipz, Tuplaus and Blingi.

Finland has received more than 75 licence applications. The new market opens on 1 July 2027.

What this means for the register

This comes from the company's own announcement. IRLG will list Finnish licence holders only once the National Police Board publishes them on its official register.
