Ensuring Compliance and Growth in Portugal’s iGaming Sector

Positioned along the Atlantic coast and historically a gateway for trade and cultural exchange, Portugal is now extending that same outward-looking vision to its regulated iGaming sector. Supervised by the Serviço de Regulação e Inspeção de Jogos (SRIJ), the country has built a licensing framework that emphasizes transparency, fair play, and strong consumer protection. This balance of stability and oversight has made Portugal an attractive jurisdiction for operators aiming to grow in both Iberian and wider European markets.

Gaming Associates helps turn regulation into opportunity by independently testing platforms, games, and betting systems while guiding operators through the entire approval journey. With our recognition in over 50+ global jurisdictions, we give businesses the confidence to meet Portugal’s legal standards while building a compliance framework that supports sustainable growth across multiple markets.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Can I add new game types to my existing iGaming license in Portugal?

Yes, under Portugal’s iGaming regulatory framework, overseen by SRIJ (Serviço de Regulação e Inspeção de Jogos), licensed operators can request approval to add additional types of games (e.g., bingo, fixed-odds betting, games of chance) to their existing license. However, each new game type must be defined within Portuguese regulation and must undergo full technical system certification and homologation before launch. As a certified and experienced test lab, Gaming Associates supports operators in meeting these requirements by conducting jurisdiction-specific testing, gap assessments, and certifying new game types.

Q2: What are the responsible gambling requirements in Portugal?

Portugal enforces strong responsible gambling measures through its regulatory body, Serviço de Regulação e Inspeção de Jogos (SRIJ). Operators are required to provide players with self-exclusion options, ensure underage users are blocked, and implement tools to limit betting behavior. Gaming Associates supports operators and platform providers in meeting these regulatory standards by conducting audits, reviewing player protection mechanisms, and offering guidance on aligning platforms with Portugal’s responsible gambling requirements.

Q3: Do I need system certification to operate iGaming in Portugal?

Yes, under SRIJ regulations, your gaming system must be certified by an approved test lab. This includes meeting security, logging, and technical integrity standards. Gaming Associates can help you certify your platform and games in line with Portugal’s requirements, ensuring a smooth approval process with the regulator.
