New three year deal expands the company’s European reach

 

March 8 2010 (Dublin, IRELAND) CryptoLogic Limited, a global developer of branded online betting games and Internet casino software, has signed a three-year agreement to license at least nine of its most popular online betting games to Betsson Malta Ltd (Betsson), a leading European e-gaming operator listed on OMX Stockholm.

One game has already gone live on CasinoEuro and the remainder are scheduled for roll-out across the three brands later this year. The deal will provide CryptoLogic with recurring revenue based on wagers placed by Betsson’s customers.

 

Justin Thouin, Vice-President of CryptoLogic, said: “Betsson is the latest customer to sign up to CryptoLogic’s games, underscoring the value our innovative and rich content brings to operators worldwide. With every new licensee CryptoLogic not only expands its global reach but also strengthens its base for generating long term revenues.”

 

With a broad subscriber base in more than 18 countries, Betsson offers a wide range of first-class online gambling products and games in a safe and user-friendly gaming environment. Its product portfolio currently includes: Sportsbook, Betting Exchange, Casino, Poker, Games, Scratchcards and Bingo.
