DGOJ grants Comar Inversiones the second approval of its technical gaming system

The Directorate General for the Regulation of Gambling (DGOJ) granted Comar Inversiones, S. A. the second approval of its technical gaming system, according to the resolution published on October 1, 2026. The approval covers the singular licences for sports betting and gaming machines that the company uses in its online gaming activity in Spain. The announcement was made in an administrative resolution included in the approval procedures provided by Spanish regulations for the technical systems of licensed operators to operate in the online market.

Approval of the technical system: what DGOJ validated

The resolution dated October 1, 2026 formalises that the technical system of Comar Inversiones has passed the technical checks required by the Directorate General for the Regulation of Gambling. The validation explicitly covers the two areas indicated in the resolution: operations related to sports betting and functions associated with gaming machines. The administrative document falls within the regulatory framework that requires licensed entities to present and submit their technical systems for approval in the online gaming market.

The technical approval certifies, in administrative terms, that the system meets the technical and integrity requirements that the DGOJ demands for these specific gaming modalities. The resolution acts as formal authorisation for the company to maintain the approved technical modules associated with these singular licences.

Spanish approval procedure and its scope

The process is regulated by Spanish regulations that determine the requirements and tests to which a technical system is subjected before its approval. The resolution published on October 1, 2026, fits within these procedures and represents the culmination of the tests and technical evaluation carried out by the competent administration. The usual checks include, among other aspects, the technical compliance of gaming modules, integrity and traceability records, and the tools that ensure the correct calculation of results and payouts.

The approval does not equate to an exploitation licence; this distinction is important: the singular licence allows commercial activity in a specific modality, while the technical system approval certifies the technical suitability of the support providing the service. In this case, Comar Inversiones maintains both layers: singular licences for sports betting and gaming machines, and now the second approval of its technical system.

What the second approval of Comar Inversiones covers

The resolution specifies that the approval corresponds to the two mentioned singular licences. In practical administrative terms, this means that the modules of the technical system related to the management of sports betting and the operation of gaming machines have been evaluated and accepted by the DGOJ. The administrative act is limited to certifying technical compliance; it does not introduce new licences or modify existing ones in terms of commercial scope.

For operators and providers, the approval offers clarity on which components of the technical ecosystem of Comar Inversiones have passed the Spanish regulatory filter. The DGOJ acts as the supervisory authority that verifies that the technical systems deployed by license holders comply with regulatory requirements before and during their exploitation.

Operational and regulatory implications in Spain

Operationally, the approval facilitates the company to maintain the technical functionality linked to the singular licences. For regulatory purposes, the resolution is the document published by the DGOJ to acknowledge the technical compliance by the online gaming service provider. For third parties, such as integrators and platform providers, the resolution serves to verify which components of the system have been validated in the administrative registry.

The Spanish framework requires that licensed entities submit their technical systems for approval whenever they introduce significant changes or deploy new modules that affect the integrity of the game. The second approval of Comar Inversiones fits into this logic of continuous control over the technical elements that support the online offering in the Spanish market.

What operators and providers should know about this resolution

Operators and providers working with Comar Inversiones or analysing its position in the market should consult the resolution published on October 1, 2026, to identify exactly which versions or modules of the system were approved. Precise identification of the approved components allows technical and commercial counterparts to align their integrations and compliance testing.

The details typically included in the resolution include the name of the system, the scope of the singular licences covered, and the date of the administrative act. Publication in the administrative file allows third parties to verify the validity of the approval and its relation to the operational licences of the entity in Spain.

Regulatory context and practical next steps

The granting of a second technical approval to Comar Inversiones is interpreted as the company's compliance with the requirements established by the Directorate General for the Regulation of Gambling for the indicated modalities. From a regulatory compliance perspective, the company now possesses the administrative act that certifies the technical compliance of its systems for sports betting and gaming machines, in accordance with the applicable Spanish regulations for online gaming.

For additional documentation and consultation of administrative actions related to this type of resolution, sector actors typically refer to the official publications of the DGOJ and the regulatory texts that govern the technical system approval procedure. The resolution dated October 1, 2026, is the current administrative reference concerning the second approval granted to Comar Inversiones, S. A.
