Betfred.com and IGT's Enhanced Partnership Deal Sees Release Of Award-Winning Games
This new deal heralds enhanced collaboration between Betfred.com, the world's largest independent bookmaker, and IGT, a market leading gaming provider.
Utilising IGT's new Gibraltar licence gives Betfred.com full, optimised access to the IGT rgs™ and allows them to release a host of world renowned gaming titles with immediate effect.
These include games with huge brand recognition such as Elvis, Star Trek, Da Vinci Diamonds and Monopoly.
The partnership also enables Betfred.com to facilitate a transition of some of the world's highest grossing land-based casino games into the online arena.
said Chris Sheffield , Betfred.com Managing Director.
"As we are licensed in Gibraltar , it was an easy decision to make the move over to the IGT rgs platform and boost our selection of market-leading games."
It also signals a strong move forward for IGT who have become the first purely business-to-business (B2B) company to be granted a Gibraltar Gaming Licence.
said Alex Kelly , IGT vice president of Interactive.
"IGT has always seen the value and appeal of Gibraltar as a world-leading gaming jurisdiction and our new Gibraltar office is ideally located for the sustained growth of our Interactive business."
This successful launch is the second in as many weeks for Betfred.com following the recent evolution to a sleek new website. The improved IGT partnership underlines a sustained investment in the online sector and a continued commitment to increase market share.
