PokerStars Get New EU Gambling License

PokerStars finally is really gearing up and getting ready to go full force in Europe as they’ve recently acquired their EU gambling license from Malta.   Players all across Europe can now enjoy access to PokerStars huge network and play against poker players from all levels from across the entire world.  Plus, the EU gambling license comes with some pretty great perks for EU players.

The best online casinos are now eager to get the EU gambling license.

PokerStars now has a new .eu website where players can access all the same games and tournaments (and players) as players who are playing on the .com website.  For EU players who can now enjoy the benefits of the EU gambling license, all they have to do is update their software to the new PokerStars EU software and everything will transfer over automatically.

This news is especially great for players from Finland and Sweden who now can enjoy their winnings tax free! Before, they had to pay a hefty 50% income tax on all winnings that were won from outside the EU – talk about a serious perk!

This new license is a great move for PokerStars as they move swiftly into the European market and understand the importance – and value - of being a regulated and licensed online casino website.
