New set-up for trotting betting on Åland
Paf will offer trotting betting on Åland through a completely new approach in the future. Paf has entered into new agreements with both ATG and the service provider Betmakers. Betmakers is one of the world’s largest suppliers of betting on horses and the collaboration with Swedish ATG has been re-written and updated.
“This will be a completely new approach for Paf’s part, which means that our Åland agents can continue to offer ATG’s range of trotting betting to all customers on Åland,” says Jannik Svahnström, Head of New Sales.
Paf will continue as an international agent for ATG on Åland. The betting will be conducted using Betmaker’s terminals and gaming system.
“The work of getting everything in place on time has been extensive and ongoing for at least six months. Now we are both satisfied and happy that we got everything in place,” says Sari Venho, Key Account Manager.
“We want to thank all our customers and gaming agents. They have had really good understanding and patience with the launch of the new gaming system,” says Jannik Svahnström.
Same same but different
For the players, all trotting races that were previously available will remain and even ATG’s well known logo will still be visible with the agents. But the new system for trotting betting means that the coupons, betting receipts and the share bets system will change.
“There will be some new features to learn for the customers, but it will also be a simplification when the amount of coupons will decrease and larger winnings can be redeemed at Paf’s office in the future, which was not possible before,” says Sari Venho.

Betting on horse trotting can be bought from the Åland agents:
- Hugos (in Hammarland, Frebbenby)
- Mattssons (in Finström, Godby)
- Ombudet Spel & Cafe (in Jomala, Maxinge)
- Shell Select (in Mariehamn, Servicegatan)
- Turhörnan (in Mariehamn, Torggatan)
In connection with the launch of the new horse betting set-up on Åland, a new website has also been opened. At Paf.ax you can find information about all kinds of gaming that Paf offers on Åland.
