Yolo Group has achieved a major milestone with two of its companies, Hub88 and Live88, receiving B2B licences to operate in the UAE’s newly regulated gaming market, under the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA).

Hub88 becomes the first licensed aggregator in the region, ensuring content for licensed B2C operators, while Live88 has set up a live dealer studio in Abu Dhabi.

The move reflects Yolo Group’s strategy to focus on trusted, transparent and innovation-driven regulated markets, with the UAE leading this shift in the region. This new direction was also confirmed by the internal restructuring, as Yolo Group consolidates its operations under the Yolo.com brand and shifts away from unregulated markets.

While around 280 positions in Estonia were affected by the internal restructuring, more than 600 employees remain with the company to drive Yolo Group’s next chapter: one built on regulation, responsibility and sustainable innovation in the global iGaming landscape.
