TL;DR — EveryMatrix displaces Entain as platform provider for Danske Spil, with the switch set for early Q4. The Danish operator delivered DKK 5.581 billion GGR last year and becomes EveryMatrix’s largest Nordic client alongside Norsk Tipping and Veikkaus. The contract advances EveryMatrix’s goal of entering the global top-three B2B suppliers.
SCCG Take — State operators in liberalized Nordic markets favor retention-focused technology over legacy platforms. Suppliers with regional roots and gamification tools can convert that preference into material contract gains.
EveryMatrix has displaced Entain as the platform provider for Danske Spil, Denmark’s state-owned gambling operator. The transition takes effect at the beginning of Q4.
Richard Funch, EveryMatrix Global Commercial Director, confirmed the change in an exclusive interview. Funch stated that Danske Spil is now the company’s biggest Nordic client and will generate a “decent” platform fee on its volume.
Danske Spil reported GGR of DKK 5.581 billion (£592.51m / US$802.91m) last year. The operator held the national monopoly until 2012 and remains the largest provider of sports betting and iCasino services in the jurisdiction.
EveryMatrix already supplies casino platforms to Norway’s Norsk Tipping and Finland’s Veikkaus. The addition of Danske Spil gives the supplier coverage across three of Scandinavia’s four national operators. Funch indicated the company is now looking at Sweden’s Svenska Spil, citing close relationships among the four markets.
As a former monopoly, Danske Spil focuses on retention rather than conquest. The operator selected EveryMatrix for its bonus tools and gamification features that reduce churn and support player retention. EveryMatrix employs over 1,600 staff and maintains development offices across multiple jurisdictions while holding tax domicile in Malta.
Funch previously spent a decade at Entain’s Ladbrokes brand before returning to Copenhagen. He described the displacement as strictly business. “Beating Entain? It’s absolutely nothing personal. It’s just business,” Funch said.
The change will not be welcomed at Entain, which continues to address successive regulatory setbacks. The development aligns with EveryMatrix’s objective to become one of the world’s top three B2B iGaming platform providers, as first reported by iGaming Future.

We've watched EveryMatrix build Nordic infrastructure for years, and now they're converting proximity into platform deals with real scale. Danske Spil did DKK 5.6 billion last year — this isn't a test market. When state operators choose retention tools over conquest platforms, the shift signals where mature regulated markets are heading.
SCCG angle: SCCG works both sides of this equation. We've placed senior commercial talent into EveryMatrix and advised state operators on vendor selection. When clients need to evaluate platform providers for retention environments or position B2B tech in regulated monopolies, we bring the relationships and market read that matter in these deals.
