After being awarded a Belgian licence, PokerStars now adds Malta to its growing list of licencing jurisdictions.<\/p>\n

Pokerstars.eu is scheduled to launch in the imminent future, possibly servicing Sweden & Finland.<\/p>\n

The online poker firm is licenced in the Belgium , Malta , Isle of Man , Denmark , France , Italy & Estonian jurisdictions & is currently awaiting the award of its Spanish licence. Some going Pokerstars and the feeling is that they are not stopping anytime soon.<\/p>\n

Obtaining an online gaming license is an arduous task. It requires significant resources & a willingness to allow detailed scrutiny of company practices & procedures that examine an applicant’s credentials in important areas like integrity, security & attitudes to responsible gaming, said Eric Hollreiser , head of corporate communications at PokerStars.<\/p>\n
