Game Lounge seizes opportunities in the Netherlands with acquisition of affiliate site

Game Lounge has taken a big step in the Netherlands: they have acquired Meneer Casino! With this purchase, Game Lounge gains more control over the Dutch gambling market and strengthens their position in Europe.

The company behind Meneer Casino, Two Kings Consultants BV, joins Game Lounge’s mission to support safe and responsible gambling in Europe. This is not just a business deal; it is a step to better help Dutch players find reliable casinos.

Meneer Casino offers Dutch gamblers tips, reviews and comparisons. In this way, the site helps people choose casinos with a license and a safe environment. With Meneer Casino on board, Game Lounge can now expand this service even further.

A smart move for the future of Game Lounge

Richard Dennys, CEO of Game Lounge, is clearly excited about the acquisition of Meneer Casino.

“This acquisition fits perfectly with our plans to grow and offer top quality to gamblers everywhere in the world. Meneer Casino has a strong name in the Netherlands and knows exactly what Dutch players want. For us, this is a golden opportunity.”

This is not the only success for Game Lounge this year. In July, they also received an important quality certification for their Swedish website, SveaCasino.se. This shows that Game Lounge is serious about responsible gambling and that they do not work with illegal providers.

Game Lounge focuses on growth in the Netherlands

Ben Robinson, one of the investors in Game Lounge, emphasizes the strong collaboration between Game Lounge and Meneer Casino. 

“This is a great opportunity for both parties. We share the same vision: to offer a safe and innovative gambling experience.”

By adding Meneer Casino to their portfolio, Game Lounge not only strengthens their position in the Netherlands, but they also further build their name in Europe. After all, the Netherlands is an emerging market, and with this acquisition, Game Lounge shows that they want to be part of it.
