The Malta Gaming Authority (GMA) suspended the gaming licence (MGA/B2C/350/2016) of BTM Entertainment Group Limited as of 31 January 2019, according to a press statement issued by MGA on that day.

Under the decision of the authority, BTM Entertainment Group Limited was directed “to indefinitely suspend all gaming operations, cease to register new players or accept any deposits on the Licence and to submit all data and documentation” requested by the MGA.

Due to the suspension of the licence, BTM Entertainment Group Limited is not authorised to continue conducting gaming using distance communications under a permit by MGA.

“The Authority notifies that no further information shall be released at this stage in order not to compromise any investigations that may need to be performed by the Authority and any other competent authority,” the MGA statement notes.
