Pinnacle Returns to Sweden Following 2-Year Absence

Pinnacle Returns to Sweden Following 2-Year Absence

 

The online gambling operator known as Pinnacle has made a triumphant return to the Swedish market with the relaunch of its sports betting website there. Having obtained a new gambling licence from Sweden’s Spelinspektionen regulatory body, this marks the first time that Pinnacle has been active in the country for two years.

As it happens, it took the brand those two years to apply for and secure a licence from Spelinspektionen, which only began dutifully operating as such in January of 2019. The licence was awarded to Pinnacle in December of last year, but the brand opted to hold off on relaunching its sportsbook until a later date. And it seems as though that date has finally arrived.

It was only earlier on this week that the Swedish government gave its permission for the country’s top-tier football club competition, Allsvenskan to recommence. With the reintroduction of that particular competition, Pinnacle chose now as the perfect time to re-open its doors in Sweden, too. This gives it quite the edge over some of its competition, with a sort of new sportsbook for gamblers to sign up to and proceed with their sports bets on teams competing in the Allsvenskan.

Pinnacle Sits Amongst Some of the Best in Sweden

Speaking of the relaunch of the Pinnacle bookmaker site, CEO of the brand Paris Smith said that it marks a proud moment for them, as Sweden is one of the key markets. He spoke of many loyal customers using the Pinnacle sportsbook over the years, and pointed out that the company did leave the market two years ago on good terms to be able to return now “as a fully licensed, regulated operator”.

Various sportsbooks are active within the Swedish market at current, and Pinnacle can now consider itself amongst the best licensed bookmakers operating there. In fact, the best bookies in Sweden are the ones that own licences from Spelinspektionen. While a few sites have operated without a licence, the regulatory body has been swift to close them down. Browsing through a collection of the best will allow you to locate one that caters specifically to your needs and requirements.

Smith went on to state that now Pinnacle is in possession of a licence from Spelinspektionen, it fully embraces the Swedish regulations, with a goal of doing things the right way. “Having done so”, he continued, “we now see this as an opportunity to contribute to a serious gaming environment in Sweden long-term and be a key part in the development of the market”.

The relaunched version of Pinnacle in Sweden isn’t so different from its previous incarnation. A wide range of betting options can be found at the platform, with traditional sports and some additional unique possibilities also being present on the site. It has also incorporated eSports into its range of options, meaning that gamblers within Sweden will be able to engage in quite the selection of sports betting opportunities.…
