Who is behind it
Svenska Spel was founded in 1997 and is owned by the Swedish state. It has no listed or private owner. The group keeps its commercial online games in a separate company, Svenska Spel Sport & Casino AB, which competes with private operators on the licensed Swedish market. The state land-based casinos sit in another group company, Casino Cosmopol AB.
Licence and what it means for you
Spelinspektionen lists Svenska Spel Sport & Casino AB with two licences: commercial online betting, register number 715773142, and commercial online gaming, register number 715773929. Both run from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2028. Swedish rules apply on the site: you must set a deposit limit, bonuses are only allowed the first time you play, and Spelpaus self-exclusion covers it. State ownership does not change these rules; the company holds the same type of licence as private operators.

Fines and regulator actions
The largest action names the licence company itself.

The administrative court in Linköping overturned that decision in June 2025. Fines on the state land-based casinos (Casino Cosmopol AB) are left out, because this site covers online gambling.
