Net Entertainment history

Net Entertainment company (as it was titled in the very beginning) was founded in 1996 in Sweden by the group of dedicated gambling enthusiasts and at first specialized on making software for sports betting companies and creating their own gaming web sites.

Before adding online casino games/offers to their portfolio, the founders of the company had been working hard for six years. During that time, the company offered job to the team of talented programmers, analytics and designers who managed to release really high-quality products. Six years later, in 2002, so-called CasinoModule was launched; it started Net Entertainment games integration to portfolio of various Internet casinos. That year the first online casino on the NetEnt platform appeared. This was the breaking point in company development as starting in 2002 NetEnt business went up and it started to gain popularity fast. One of the factors of the success was that the company’s software could be fast and simply integrated to already existing online casinos. That is why many casino owners chose NetEnt games.

In 2005, NetEnt received Malta Gaming Authority license. It allows the company to guarantee their clients honesty and safety of the software/games manufactured.

Since 2009 NetEnt is listed on Stockholm stock exchange.

The end of 2011 (December, 22) was the time when first games were adapted for mobile casinos, launched for mobile devices on iOS and Android. The games chosen for this integration were the most popular of the whole portfolio of the company at that moment - Gonzo’s Quest, Jack Hammer and Blackjack. Exclusively for mobile devices, NetEnt Touch platform was developed. The portfolio of NetEnt games adapted for mobile devices is constantly growing.

In 2012, Net Entertainment management made a statement of beginning work on their own casino with live dealers (Live dealer casino), and in 2013 it was officially launched. At the moment, live dealer online casino games by this developer are available in many casinos, and the company makes everything possible to make the range of the games offered wider. Also in 2012, the company made an agreement with Boyle Sports and Paddy Power, as well as entered Danish market.

In 2013, the company releases their first Live-games that could be launched on computers and mobile devices.

2014 was the year when NetEnt beat the record on the number of transactions as it exceeded 21,400,000,000 in that period. Also that year had the record number of agreements (31) signed with such big companies as Betfair, bwin.party, Rational Group and others. Also the developers of the company created their first game for desktops and mobile phones written fully on HTML5. By the end of the year, stock market price of the company was 1 billion Euros.

In 2015 something, the company management had worked for a long time, happened - NetEnt entered the US Market. The company also got license for operating in Spain and Great Britain. That year one more important thing happened: NetEnt games appeared in land based slot machines at William Hill betting houses in Great Britain.

In 2016, the company celebrated 20 years of existence and invited famous comedian David Sandine to make the film about NetEnt history. This year the company has also entered Romanian market.
