European multi-sport fantasy provider Fanaments has been awarded a UK online gaming licence.
Based in Iceland, Fanaments offers a range of football competition-based tournaments, including the English Premier League, Spain’s La Liga and the UEFA Champions League, as well as NBA basketball, mixed martial arts and PGA golf.
The Malta-licensed platform allows users to choose a different team each game day. Bragi Egisson, CEO, explained: “It is very exciting that we are the only multi-sport fantasy service on the continent. It was clear to us that there was an over reliance on football and so our objective is to satisfy the craving for additional sports.
“Our launch co-insides very nicely with prominent sporting fixtures this week. London will be treated to NBA’s Magic versus Raptors game as well as the mammoth Premier League tie between Liverpool and Manchester United on Sunday.
“Fanaments are expecting a strong reception to what is a high-profile week within the sporting calendar, as we aim to inject further excitement into a variety of sports events.”
