Aristocrat Gaming announced Monday that the company was the first international slot and online technology company to be granted a Gaming-Related Vendor license by the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA), the federal entity overseeing commercial gaming activities in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Aristocrat Gaming will provide its land-based electronic gaming machines, online games to operators licensed by the GCGRA
This announcement grants Aristocrat the ability to provide the company’s land-based electronic gaming machines (EGMs) and online games and technology solutions to commercial gaming operators licensed by the GCGRA.
The issuance of the license marks a new milestone in the GCGRA’s latest effort to establish a standard, controlled commercial gaming sector in the market.
Aristocrat will operate under the “Gaming Related Vendor License” category. The company services customers as a leading designer, manufacturer, and distributor of regulated land-based slot games.
As the GCGRA’s first supplier to obtain the license, the company will offer world-class gaming content to UAE citizens. Hardware and services will cater to player interests and financial preferences.

“We are honored to be the first large, international technology provider to be awarded a gaming-related vendor license to serve the UAE market,” said Hector Fernandez, CEO, Gaming for Aristocrat.
“At Aristocrat, our vision is to deliver the best seat in the house wherever, and whenever the world plays. We look forward to doing so by providing premium content for players in the UAE while simultaneously encouraging responsible gameplay.”
Furthermore, Aristocrat Gaming recently became a promotional partner for Princess Cruises, one of the world’s most iconic cruise lines. The fleet carries more than a million passengers each year to more worldwide destinations than any other major line.
Through the new collaboration, Aristocrat will design memorable gaming experiences for guests onboard Princess ships. It will create promotions with land-based casinos that offer Princess cruises as rewards as well.
Additionally, guests will have access to themed slot gaming zones, including Buffalo Zone™ by Aristocrat Gaming. The company also announced that it would host a marquee event on Sun Princess in 2025.
